The pair of Thiago Alcantara and Alisson Becker are widely expected to be deemed fit to start Liverpool FC’s game against Arsenal that is due for a 2 PM kick-off at the Merseyside.
Previous reports had indicated the possibility of the duo being sidelined for the clash against Mikel Arteta’s side due to both players missing first-team training sessions over the weekend.
However, recent chatter on Twitter suggests that Thiago, who is line to make his first start for the Reds since his move to Anfield, and Alisson, the Merseyside outfit’s first-choice No.1, are in contention to start the game for Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool FC side on Monday afternoon.
