Latest Liverpool Injury Report: Reds Handed Double Injury Boost Ahead Of Chelsea Clash

Liverpool will be able to welcome back both Joe Gomez and James Milner for the FA Cup tie against Chelsea this evening.

Gomez missed the 3-0 defeat to Watford on Saturday due to what the club described as a “minor fitness problem”, while Milner is fit to return after recovering from a slight muscle strain. Naby Keita is also expected to be fit after a hip injury ruled out of him out of the game at Vicarage Road.

Captain Jordan Henderson is still absent. The 29-year-old injured his hamstring in the 1-0 loss to Atletico Madrid last month and is likely to miss at least another week of action.

Xherdan Shaqiri has not managed to recover from a troublesome calf problem. The Swiss international has not featured for the Reds since the 1-0 win over Spurs in January.

The only other absentee is Nathaniel Clyne. The right-back has not played this campaign after he picked up an ACL injury in pre-season.
