Boost for boss as Dom set to be fit

KEY MIDFIELDER LOOKS LIKELY TO BE IN SQUAD WITH STARTING SPOT DEPENDENT ON SHOWING IN TRAINING

- By PAUL WHEELOCK

LIVERPOOL boss Arne Slot has confirmed that Dominik Szoboszlai should be fit for Saturday's showdown at Tottenham Hotspur. And the Reds will also be boosted by the availability of two right-backs and the fact that Cody Gakpo's injury is not as bad as first feared.

Szoboszlai and Joe Gomez both came off injured in last Saturday's 2-0 home win over Brighton & Hove Albion, which extended Liverpool's unbeaten run in all competitions to five matches.

They will look to make that six tomorrow night in north London and, speaking at his press conference this morning, Slot confirmed that while Gomez will be absent, key midfielder Szoboszlai looks set to take his place in a squad and will start if he is "completely fit".
