Liverpool vs Newcastle - Liverpool set to welcome back Alexander-Arnold
Posted Monday, December 24, 2018 by PA
Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold is set to return for the Boxing Day visit of Newcastle after missing the last two matches with a foot injury.
Naby Keita is expected to resume training ahead of the game after sustaining a foot injury and bruised ribs at Wolves on Friday.
Centre-backs Joe Gomez (fractured leg) and Joel Matip (broken collarbone) remain sidelined for another three to four weeks.
Newcastle will be without Ki Sung-yueng after he headed off to the Asian Cup.
The midfielder was required to meet up with the South Korea squad in Abu
Dhabi ahead of next month’s tournament by December 26 and with Jonjo Shelvey
struggling to shake off a thigh injury, Isaac Hayden could come into
contention.
Defender Ciaran Clark missed Saturday’s 0-0 draw with Fulham because of an
ankle problem, although Federico Fernandez was included among the substitutes
after recovering from a calf injury. Karl Darlow (elbow) is still
out.
