Updated / Tuesday, 30 Sep 2025 23:56 Alisson looks set to miss Saturday's trip to Chelsea Arne Slot says Liverpool number one Alisson Becker will miss Saturday's Premier League match at Chelsea after going off injured in the Champions League loss away to Galatasaray. "I wasn't really thinking that we had an injury, but Hugo felt something," Slot said.

"He said he couldn't continue, so we had to take him off. "Disappointing because you play football to win a game and that is what we didn't do," Slot said.

"What you see is that there are a few players from us that missed pre-season so you simply cannot play them every single game," Slot said. "That means it is not always that I want to rotate but sometimes I just need to because players are not ready to play three times 90 minutes in seven or eight days."
