Liverpool Face Defensive Injury Concerns Ahead of Manchester City Clash

Ibrahima Konaté and Conor Bradley are being assessed for knee and hamstring injuries, respectively, following Liverpool's 2-0 victory over Real Madrid on Wednesday.
Both players' availability for Sunday's Premier League match against Manchester City remains uncertain, with manager Arne Slot describing their injuries as concerning.
Konaté has been a key figure in Liverpool's defense this season, forming a strong partnership with Virgil van Dijk, while Bradley impressed against Real Madrid, containing Kylian Mbappé and contributing to the opening goal.
Trent Alexander-Arnold has recovered from his own hamstring issue and is expected to start, providing some relief to Liverpool's injury-hit squad.
Liverpool, currently eight points ahead of Manchester City, could extend their lead to 11 points with a win, as City struggle with a six-match winless streak.
