After getting back to winning ways over the weekend, Liverpool put their champions league campaign on the line as the Reds host defending European champions Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield on Tuesday.

The first leg saw Liverpool beaten 2-0 in the French capital last week, squarely second-best across the 90 minutes as PSG outclassed them in every facet of the game.

Yet the Reds got their mojo back in a 2-0 victory over Fulham on the weekend, and will hope that momentum can carry over to give them the necessary goods for a fightback in the hunt for a semifinal place in European play.

The Sporting News takes stock of the Liverpool injury list and details who could miss out and who could return as the season nears a conclusion.

Liverpool injury and suspension list

Below is the latest injury picture for Liverpool, including estimated return dates for those who are sidelined.

Alisson

• Expected return date: April 19 (vs. Everton)

After missing the Brighton defeat prior to the international break, Liverpool’s first-choice goalkeeper has been forced to endure a weeks-long spell on the sidelines.

Slot confirmed after the March international break that Alisson would miss both legs against PSG in the Champions League at the very least, and will not be back until “towards the end of the season.” He could return for the Everton match after the Champions League quarterfinal. “Alisson is working hard to find his way back into the squad, so that’s really positive,” Slot said prior to the Fulham match. “But he will not be in the squad this weekend yet.”

He’s not likely to make it back to full fitness until the coming weekend at the earliest.

Wataru Endo

• Expected return date: June 2026

Endo required oxygen on the pitch before being carried off on a stretcher in the Sunderland game. Slot later said the Japan captain had a serious-looking injury to his left foot or ankle, which is likely to rule him out for “a long, long time.”

The player later confirmed ankle ligament damage that required surgery. His participation in Liverpool’s season is essentially over and Endo’s target is to recover in time for Japan’s 2026 World Cup campaign.

Conor Bradley

• Expected return date: August 2026

Bradley hurt himself when clearing the ball into touch in the closing stages of the 0-0 draw at Arsenal in January. He was taken off on a stretcher in some distress, and the club later confirmed he requires surgery on what was described as a “significant” knee injury. The Northern Ireland international will miss the rest of this season after sustaining bone and ligament damage.

Giovanni Leoni

• Injury: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear

• Expected return date: August 2026

Summer signing Leoni suffered a nightmare debut as he horrifically tore an ACL against Southampton in the Carabao Cup back in September. The Italian defender underwent immediate surgery and his campaign has already been cruelly ended.

Stefan Bajcetic

• Expected return date: May 2026

Bajcetic has not played this season due to injury and needed hamstring surgery back in January. It is hoped he will return in 2025/26, but Slot has stated that “as much as I’d like to have him back, we have to manage the expectations with him as well.”
