Fabinho and James Milner are out for this weekend’s Merseyside derby at Anfield, Jurgen Klopp confirmed.
Liverpool host Everton on Saturday night as their aim is to build on their midweek win over RB Leipzig.
The Reds have lost their last three Premier League games at Anfield, so that should change on Saturday.
Speech In his pre-match press conference, Klopp confirmed that both Fabinho and Milner were not yet available due to injury:
Klopp injury update:
Keita has trained with the team.
Fabinho does not train.
No one else came back either. Not Milner.

Liverpool’s injury problems continue to hold back, with Fabinho and Milner as key players, particularly the former.
The Brazilian’s absence means Ozan Kabak and Jordan Henderson are likely to continue as a center-back pair against Everton, with Gini Wijnaldum, Thiago and Curtis Jones in midfield.
Naby Keita could be an option to start in the middle of the park, but he is likely to be on the substitute bench, given his lack of sharpness in the game.
Will Liverpool beat Everton on Saturday?
Yes
Do not
