Goalkeeper Alisson has missed the Reds\u2019 last six matches due to injury but Arne Slot said on Friday morning he may be able to play at Anfield on Saturday.<\/p>\n
With Mamardashvili sidelined by the injury he sustained during last week\u2019s win over Everton, Woodman \u2013 who replaced the Georgian off the bench at Hill Dickinson Stadium \u2013 will start versus Palace if Alisson is not ready.<\/p>\n
Slot said at his pre-match press conference: \u201cGiorgi will definitely not be available for tomorrow and also not for the upcoming weeks. Ali is close to a return to play, so let\u2019s see if tomorrow comes too early, yes or no. <\/p>\n
\u201cAnd that leaves, of course, Freddie Woodman as an option, who is definitely fit.\u201d<\/p>\n
The head coach also confirmed Joe Gomez is available again after the defender missed the Merseyside derby.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe is back in the squad, so that\u2019s really positive because last week I only had two centre-backs that were playing and no-one on the bench so it\u2019s really helpful that Joe is back,\u201d Slot stated.<\/p>\n
The boss also provided an update on Wataru Endo, who has not played since getting injured in the victory at Sunderland in February.<\/p>\n
Slot said: \u201cWata is starting to go outside. Not with the team yet, but starting to do exercises outside on the pitch with the rehab team so he is making steps, but he will not be available next week for (Manchester) United or the week after.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut we are hoping and expecting him to be back in the end of the season.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
