Liverpool star set to lose fitness race for Manchester United clash

Every time I hear of any other club with an injury problem I feel like we’ve had not only the same but worse since the beginning of the season.

There’s certainly no sympathy for Liverpool in these parts but it seems like Jurgen Klopp’s side are set to be dealt a blow ahead of our visit at Anfield.

According to Dave OC Kop, Alexis Mac Allister is set to lose his fitness race with injury which would keep him out of the clash against United on Sunday.

It doesn’t seem like the Argentina international has made the impression at Anfield that many expected, but it’s still early days and he’s a young player. They would certainly rather have him than be without when we go to their place on Sunday.

Mac Allister came off in the second half of Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Sheffield United after picking up a knock initially in the first half at Bramall Lane.

When it comes to United, we’ll be without several key players for the game against Liverpool. There’s nothing we can do about it and you don’t hear us playing the violin.

We’ll keep our eyes peeled for any injury updates throughout the week.
