Still no news however Fabs, Mo & VvD are certainly not playing tonight.
This from SI :
If Mohamed Salah has been managing abductor tendinopathy, then an earlier return is expected. Both players may have already been ultra sounded by the team doctor, as they always have it to hand.
The worst-case scenario in this instant would be a strain, however, due to having a good on-pitch examination and Jurgen Klopp not mentioning an ongoing injury, this is positively unlikely.
Despite Mohamed Salah walking off the pitch fine, adrenaline rushing through the body can mask the pain that has been caused. The same can be said with Virgil Van Dijk’s injury.
Van Dijk is believed to have reported suffering an injury to his right calf. Again like his teammate Salah, it may be just minor and a scan would have already taken place at the stadium.
In summary, the injuries to Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk do seem to be not as bad as first thought and there is a very good chance that both will be available possibly for next week’s Premier League match.
Worth mentioning this too (Athletic) :
All three (VvD, Fabs & Mo) are central to their team’s chances in the next fortnight and that increases the need for them — along with other key colleagues — to recover and stay fit until the campaign finishes on May 28 in Paris, where Liverpool will face Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
The seriousness of the situation is such that Liverpool, who bolstered Klopp’s squad in January through the signing of Luis Diaz, have moved to strengthen their backroom staff to ensure they are in the best possible shape for the vital closing days of this season and further into the future.
Liverpool set to bolster staff for quadruple push as Klopp lines up return of Chris Rohrbeck. German physio very popular among squad + worked closely with Salah / Van Dijk before 2020 exit. Move accelerated after Fabinho injury
