Liverpool suffer blow with right-back out for three weeks

Liverpool have suffered a fresh blow with Conor Bradley out for at least three weeks after his ankle injury against Crystal Palace.

The Reds graduate has been a key player for the club over the past few months in the injury absence of Trent Alexander-Arnold.

However, he won't be involved for the next few games, having been forced off the field with an ankle problem against the Eagles.

Luckily enough, Alexander-Arnold has recovered in time and he is expected to start for the Reds against Atalanta in the Europa League.

The Merseyside giants suffered a shock 3-0 defeat to the Serie A outfit in the first leg of the Europa League quarter-final at Anfield.

They face a huge task of turning around the result. The Reds have a similar concern in the Premier League after the shock loss to Palace.

They are currently third in the table with a two-point deficit to leaders Manchester City, who are now favourites to win every game.
