Liverpool will be looking to put the controversy of the Tottenham game behind them, and close the gap to the top of the table, with a win at Brighton this afternoon.
The Spaniard is without doubt one of the most gifted players in the squad, but age and injury have taken their toll, with no guarantee of a starting spot when he does return.
Liverpool face Brighton & Hove Albion at 2pm on Sunday, with 5 first team players unavailable due to injuries, with 2 more suspended for the difficult away trip.
Pundits and fans alike have been singing the praises of Ryan Gravenberch, after this display in mid-week, with Jamie Carragher the latest to have his say.
Bought as a box-to-box midfielder, Gravenberch has shown that he can assist, and score goals, and is fast becoming a fan favourite with his all-action performances.
As expected, Liverpool have taken a firm grip on Group E, with two routine victories against LASK and Union Saint-Gilloise, and are clear favourites to win the group..
Liverpool made it two wins from two at Anfield, as a much changed side had too much quality for Union Saint-Gilloise in the Europa League.
Only Alisson and Salah keep their places in the starting line-up, as Klopp looks to give youngesters a chance and give other players a rest ahead of another difficult away trip at the weekend.
Jurgen Klopp spoke at length about VAR and the Luis Diaz incident, but stressed that he or his players are not angry with the Officials, just the system.
