Anfield Side Encounter Significant Unavailable Stars Liverpool manager Arne Slot has confirmed that the young defender, Frimpong, and the German midfielder will all miss this weekend's match against Forest. On a positive note, first-choice keeper the Brazilian has returned to fitness from his muscle problem and is available. The Liverpool boss stated that Gomez was absent from practice yesterday but is expected to be available for consideration, though he probably won't be played for the complete game. Burnley Get Encouraging Update on Armando Broja Clarets boss Parker has stated that striker the Albanian may have "avoided serious injury" after suffering an ankle injury while appearing for the Albanian side against the Three Lions. The striker left the game on a medical cart, but later examinations have indicated the problem is "much less severe than feared." The Burnley manager added that their striker has trained since recently and could potentially feature versus his old team the Blues on Saturday. Newcastle Fitness Updates Newcastle manager Howe has given updates on several key individuals ahead of their game against Manchester City. Anthony Gordon has "put in significant effort" to return from his recent issue and is "questionable" for the weekend's encounter. Tino Livramento is "very close" after overcoming a knee problem and is also in the running for the squad. Nick Pope is "fine" after undergoing safety procedures, while Joelinton and the Italian are both fit to play against City.

The omens aren't great for the Newcastle manager, who has failed to secure victory Pep Guardiola in 18 prior English football attempts. His record against the City manager stands at two draws and sixteen defeats from their previous meetings. "Our progress and certainly I've seen a massive improvement from us," said Turf Moor boss the gaffer. "We need to work on small details at this present moment in time." The resumption of English football matches comes after a chaotic international break that saw memorable highlights including the Scottish team's thrilling success for the global tournament.
