Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that centre-back Joe Gomez will miss Sunday's clash with Manchester United at Anfield through injury.
The England international, 25, has missed both of the last two matches with a muscle problem. He suffered the blow during last month's 5-2 defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League.
Gomez has been a regular fixture for the Merseyside outfit this season, racking up 29 appearances in all competitions. Liverpool have strength in depth at centre-back and have recorded back-to-back clean sheets in their last two outings since that drubbing at the hands of Madrid.
