Liverpool will be without their first-choice goalkeeper Alisson for their upcoming Premier League fixture versus Bournemouth at Anfield (via BBC Sport). The Brazilian has suffered a hip injury in training and is also a doubt for the club’s UEFA Champions League tie versus Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night.
Alisson wasn’t involved in the FA Cup defeat at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night and it looks as though Adrian, who started for the Reds that night, will be called into action at the weekend and possibly beyond that.
Will Liverpool be affected by Alisson's injury?
Yes
No
James Pearce of the Athletic shared the news via his Twitter account and here’s how some of the fans have reacted.

What do we think?
According to Transfermarkt.co.uk, Alisson has missed eight Premier League games so far this season but the Liverpool fans can take great encouragement from the fact that despite being without their first-choice goalkeeper, they won every single one of those fixtures.
