Liverpool coach Arne Slot has confirmed a big blow ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash against Arsenal.

The Reds will be aiming to cement top spot for another week when they take on the Gunners at Emirates Stadium on Sunday evening.

However, the Reds will take to the field without forward Diogo Jota who picked up an injury in the win over Chelsea.

The Portuguese forward's presence will be missed, having scored eight goals in 15 appearances against the North London side.

"I think they feel good but not when it comes to playing for us during the weekend," he told reporters, as per Goal.

"Federico might train with us today or tomorrow – but Diogo definitely not. And Conor Bradley, let's see if he can be with us tomorrow."

When asked about Alisson's recovery, he added, " "Progressing well like we expect, not a short-term recovery, so difficult to judge.

"We judge him at the end phase of his rehab but not yet. Don't expect him to be at Brighton in the cup."
