Alisson has missed Liverpool’s Premier League clash against Burnley due to illness.
Jurgen Klopp revealed before the game that his squad were hit by a flu outbreak and both Alisson and Joe Gomez have failed to make the bench for Burnley’s visit to Anfield.
Caoimhin Kelleher replaces Alisson in goal, while Andy Robertson starts at left-back for the first time since October following his shoulder injury.
‘Ali only left the camp this morning,’ Klopp told Sky Sports before kick off.
‘Joey we had to make the decision yesterday. That’s obviously not good.
‘But the rest I think was pretty clear who was injured and unavailable for different reasons.’
