Liverpool are preparing for their FA Cup tie against Manchester United today, but they'll be doing so without several key players due to injury.
United earned their quarter-final spot by defeating Nottingham Forest last month. Meanwhile, their opponents advanced in the previous round with a win over Southampton. Liverpool will now head to Old Trafford as both clubs look to book their place in next month's semi-finals at Wembley.

Goalkeeper Alisson Becker hasn't played since Liverpool's 3-1 loss to Arsenal on February 4. He's out with a hamstring injury and no exact date for when the Brazilian might be back in the squad. The earliest he could return would be after the international break.
Potential return date: April.
Right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold has been struggling with a knee injury for most of 2024. He first got hurt in the FA Cup match against Arsenal in January. The same injury forced him off the pitch at half-time during the Burnley game on February 10.
Klopp confirmed on Friday that Alexander-Arnold was nearing a return to action, but it won't be until after the international break. He will likely miss the following game against Brighton but could return a week later.
