Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker is expected to start when the Reds face Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday. The Brazilian has been out since August with a calf injury but is back and ready to return to action.

It is believed that as long as he makes it through the whole week without any setbacks in training, he will be given the nod to play ahead of Adrian this weekend.

Manager Jurgen Klopp won’t just have Alisson ready and available, though, with Mohamed Salah also likely to be fit for the United clash. The Egyptian was substituted in the 2-1 win against Leicester City last time out due to an ankle problem.

However, despite the reckless challenge from Foxes midfielder Hamza Choudhury, it is believed the forward escaped without serious injury and he is said to be sufficiently recovered to take part on Sunday.

In terms of other injuries, we are awaiting updates about Xherdan Shaqiri and Joel Matip, with both having missed games before the international break.
