Speaking to reporters on Friday, Reds boss Jurgen Klopp said: “I don’t know if Darwin will be available or not.
“After 20 minutes someone stepped on his foot. It was very painful. He only took his boot off after the game because he didn’t want to see it before. He knew there was something (wrong).
“Nothing broken, X-ray clear, but it’s swollen. We have to see if he can get his foot back into a boot or not. That takes time.”
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Nunez was spotted leaving Anfield wearing a protective boot on Wednesday, and subsequent scans indicated heavy bruising without any fractures. Since there is no serious damage, if the swelling reduces considerably then Klopp might want to take the risk of throwing him into the mix since the fixture holds immense significance in the title race.
DID YOU KNOW?
Nunez set an unwanted Premier League record against Chelsea as he hit the woodwork four times – the most a single player has hit the frame of the goal in a match since the 2003-04 season.
