Liverpool will face Arsenal in the EFL Cup semi-final first leg on Thursday, January 6. Ahead of the game, the Reds suffered a blow as Alisson, Roberto Firmino and Joel Matip tested positive for COVID-19 and missed the 2-2 draw with Chelsea on Sunday. Jurgen Klopp's side are also currently without Thiago Alcantara (hip issue), Divock Origi as well as Takumi Minamino (minor muscle soreness), Nathaniel Phillips (fractured cheekbone) and Harvey Elliott (serious ankle injury). Liverpool will be without Klopp against the Gunners as well, as the manager has also tested positive for COVID-19. Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Naby Keita will also be missing for the Reds squad as they have joined up with their international teams for the Africa Cup of Nations which begins on January 9 and ends on February 6.
