Arsenal will visit Manchester City's Etihad in the highlight match of round 30 of the Premier League. Meanwhile, Liverpool will be determined to defeat Brighton, while waiting for the "Gunners" and The Citizens to hold each other.
During the FIFA Days in March, each Liverpool player had to work for an average of 120 minutes. Kostas Tsimikas has the most appearances, while Dominik Szoboszlai and Virgil Van Dijk have no time to rest.
Worse for the Reds when Andy Robertson practice leaving the pitch in the match between Scotland and Northern Ireland. Previously, this defender also had to miss 3 months due to injury after serving on international duty. Robertson's condition needs to be further checked upon his return to the club, but the possibility of playing this weekend is not high.
However, Jurgen Klopp can rest assured as Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez are both rested and healthy. This will be the motivation for the "Red Brigade" to overcome the upcoming difficult period.
Salah did not perform well in the FA Cup quarter-final when Liverpool lost to Manchester United. However, the Egyptian striker is eager to play after being exempted from international competition. The same is true of Darwin Nunez.
Meanwhile, Curtis Jones, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Diogo Jota are all taking advantage of the break to recover, although the possibility of a comeback is still open.
Also playing in the match between Scotland and Northern Ireland as Robertson, Conor Bradley reached an important milestone. The 20-year-old defender scored his first international goal and was named Man of the Match. The appearance of Bradley is one of Liverpool's interesting stories this season. With the confidence gained after returning from the national team, Bradley promises to explode even more.
As mentioned above, Van Dijk played all 2 matches for the Netherlands - a 4-0 victory over Scotland and a 1-2 defeat to Germany. However, the centre-back has returned to Anfield on a smooth footing.
After John Stones was injured, Joe Gomez had a chance to play for England and did not perform badly. Gomez is in good physical condition and returning to the England national team after a long absence will be a boost.
Luis Diaz is also in a happy mood after Colombia's 1-0 win over Spain and 3-2 over Romania. The news that Diaz wants to move to Real Madrid suddenly appeared, but that was part of the problem and Klopp would still be happy that the striker was healthy.
Similar to other coaches in the Premier League, Klopp prayed that Liverpool players would not have to suffer too many injuries while on international duty. And apart from Robertson, the German tactician can rest assured. Of course, whether the players' fitness is guaranteed or not is another story.
If the break helps Salah regain his best form, it will be an opportunity for Liverpool to break away in the Premier League championship race.
