Thiago Alcantara will say absent in the great classic between Liverpool and Manchester United for the third date of the Premier League. For what is this?
Manchester United and Klopp's Liverpool will star in what will undoubtedly be the match of the date in the Premier League on this atypical Monday.
In this way, one of the essential crosses in European football will occur on the day of the date and in circumstances where both teams must add three not to start the season on the wrong foot. However, the visitors will not be able to count on the presence of the Spanish Thiago Alcántara, a fact that will force the German coach to look for alternatives.
Manchester United lost their first 2 Premier League games against lesser rivals such as Brighton and Brentford. That said, a new defeat by Cristiano Ronaldo's team would sentence the Old Trafford club to last place in the table and add three consecutive losses in the first three games of the tournament.
On the other hand, Liverpool has just drawn against Fulham and Crystal Palace in their first two games, so, as can be seen, the obligation to add 3 to 3 will also be for the Anfield side.
Arteta's Arsenal managed to win their first three games and remain leaders with a perfect score, so today's game will be vital not to lose track of London.
However, and as mentioned above, Liverpool will not be able to count on the services of Thiago Alcantara, who suffered a severe injury on the first date against Fulham and will be out for several weeks for Klopp's men.
Based on this, it was learned that the Spaniard suffered a hamstring muscle injury that forced him to leave after 50 minutes against Fulham and that he will have about five more games to recover.
According to this, Thiago could not be present against Crystal Palace in the tie on one of his team's last dates, nor will he be able to face Manchester United in the classic.
He will surely miss the commitments against Bournemouth, Newcastle, Everton, and Wolverhampton, being able to return this way against Chelsea on September 18.
On the other hand, in the last match against Vieira's men, Klopp used Fabinho, Elliot, and Milner in midfield. This formation will most likely be repeated today with the inclusion of Henderson in this one. For now, it remains to wait.
