Liverpool XI vs West Ham: Confirmed line-up, team news, injury latest for Premier League game today

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that striker Roberto Firmino is set for a spell out with a “serious” hamstring injury.

The Brazilian was forced off during Wednesday night’s 2-0 win over Atletico Madrid in the Champions League and will miss Sunday’s Premier League clash with West Ham.

“Bobby is not good news with a serious hamstring injury, really unfortunately,” Klopp said. “We don’t know exactly how long he will be out but it will be not now after the international break directly. We have to work on that.”

Klopp will also continue to be without defender Joe Gomez and midfielder Curtis Jones, the latter having suffered a bizarre injury.

“Curtis is a completely different story [to Firmino], he was very unlucky in training – he got a finger that scratched the eye. I had a lot of injuries to players in my career, that was not involved. He is on the way back but we have to see how long exactly.

“He will be back after the international break, for sure, but in the international break we have to see when he can start doing proper stuff again.

“And Joey, hopefully after the international break as well.”

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson; Fabinho, Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Mane, Salah, Jota.

Subs: Kelleher, Konate, Thiago, Minamino, Tsimikas, Origi, Phillips, Williams, Morton.
