Liverpool is uncertain about the fitness of several players ahead of their match against Southampton on Sunday. They currently lead the Premier League by five points and have been managing injuries while achieving 15 wins in 17 matches. Virgil van Dijk has withdrawn from the Netherlands squad due to medical reasons, and his status will be assessed upon his return to training. Harvey Elliott has resumed training with the Under-21s and hopes to return to the first team soon. Trent Alexander-Arnold is recovering from a low-grade hamstring injury but faces a race against time to be fit for the match. Alisson Becker and Federico Chiesa are also recovering from long-term injuries, with updates expected later this week. Diogo Jota is not expected to return until December.
