BURNLEY
RULED OUT: Ashley Barnes (thigh)

MIGHT PLAY: Jamie Vardy (hamstring), Jonny Evans (hamstring)
“Patson [Daka] will be three weeks, Soyuncu will be out for three weeks and Ricardo Pereira will be six to eight weeks. That’s so frustrating for him with how hard he has worked. For the referee not to see that, it’s a fractured fibula and he’s lucky it’s not worse. Ryan (Bertrand) twisted his knee in the warm-up, which was disappointing.” – Brendan Rodgers

MIGHT PLAY: Divock Origi (knee)
AVAILABLE: Virgil van Dijk (Covid), Fabinho (Covid), Curtis Jones (Covid), Thiago (Covid)
“The boys who had Covid are back – Fabinho, Virgil [van Dijk], Curtis [Jones] and Thiago. Thiago was the latest, he came back and trained first time yesterday with the team. We have one young player who is now isolating and two staff. Every morning when you come in, it’s a little bit like a lottery. You hope it’s all fine, then one case and ‘oof, OK’. That’s the situation. But apart from that, we are fine.” – Jurgen Klopp

As far as I could see today in training, they are all in good shape. From what I saw, I can say most, if not all, of them might be available.” – Ralf Rangnick
NEWCASTLE UNITED
RULED OUT: Jamal Lewis (hamstring), Federico Fernandez (thigh), Paul Dummett (calf)
MIGHT PLAY: Emil Krafth (illness), Javier Manquillo (illness), Jonjo Shelvey (muscle)
“I don’t think it will be too long. It’s not a major injury but it’s enough to keep him out of the festive period and some games in early January. Hamstring strains are usually 3-4 weeks minimum. I think that’s probably where he’ll be.” – Eddie Howe on Jamal Lewis
