Gomez has missed the Reds' last two matches with the impact injury he sustained away at AFC Bournemouth last month. Frimpong, meanwhile, suffered a muscle issue early on in the Champions League win over Qarabag. Asked about the condition of the pair on Thursday, Arne Slot told his pre-match press conference: "Jeremie will definitely not train this week, so he's not available for the weekend. "With Joe, we have a little bit of hope that he might train Saturday. So, not available to start but maybe available to help the team if needed during the game because, as you already know, there are not that many defenders available at the moment."
