Giorgi Mamardashvili is expected to be out for at least two weeks after the Liverpool goalkeeper was stretchered off during the Merseyside derby on Sunday.

The Reds’ backup goalkeeper had to be replaced after colliding with Everton goalscorer Beto in the act of the Toffees equalizing in the second half.

With usual the No.1 Alisson Becker also out, third-choice keeper Freddie Woodman had to be called upon from the bench, with Mamardashvili sent to hospital in order to gauge the severity of his injury - and the Georgia international now looks set for a spell on the sidelines, adding to Arne Slot’s issues.

According to The Athletic, Mamardashvili’s injury is not as bad as first feared, but he is still expected to spend at least two weeks out of action.

Alisson is nearing a return, but is expected to remain out for the visit of Crystal Palace this weekend, meaning Woodman looks set to make his first Premier League start for the club.
