Unfortunately, Liverpool's Diogo Jota will not be joining his team for their upcoming match against Arsenal at the Emirates on Sunday. Manager Arne Slot has confirmed that the Portugal international will not be available due to an injury sustained during last week's game against Chelsea. Jota, who has been a key player for the team this season with four goals and two assists in 10 appearances, had to be substituted after a collision with Chelsea's Tosin Adarabioyo.
Due to his injury, Jota also missed out on Liverpool's Champions League victory over RB Leipzig, with Darwin Nunez taking his place and scoring a goal. In a press conference on Friday, Slot informed reporters that Jota, along with Federico Chiesa and Conor Bradley, will not be able to play in the upcoming match. Although Chiesa and Bradley are feeling good, they are not yet fit enough to join the team on the field.
When asked about the progress of Alisson Becker, Liverpool's first-choice goalkeeper who has been out with a hamstring injury, Slot stated that he is recovering well but it will still be some time before he can return to the field. In fact, it is unlikely that Alisson will be back before the November international break. Slot explained that it is difficult to determine the exact length of an injury and it is best to assess it towards the end of the rehabilitation process.
Liverpool will also be without their star goalkeeper Alisson Becker who is still recovering from a hamstring injury. It is expected that he will not be back until after November's international break. Slot also shared that Alisson's progress has been positive, but it will still be some time before he can return to the field. He added that it is difficult to predict the exact timeline of an injury and it is best to assess it towards the end of the rehabilitation process.
As for their upcoming match against Arsenal, Liverpool will have to face the Gunners without Jota, Chiesa, Bradley, and Alisson. This will surely be a challenge for the team as they currently sit at the top of the Premier League, just one point ahead of Manchester City. Arsenal, on the other hand, are four points behind in third place after their defeat to Bournemouth last week. It will be a tough battle for both teams as they fight for a higher position in the league.
Despite the setbacks, Liverpool remains determined and focused on maintaining their top spot in the league. They will continue to work hard and give their best in the upcoming match against Arsenal. As for Jota, Chiesa, and Bradley, they will be missed on the field but the team is hoping for a speedy recovery for them. As for Alisson, his return will have to wait a little longer, but his team will be eagerly waiting for his comeback.
