Liverpool victory over LASK and squad fitness updates

Overview

Liverpool secured a 6-3 victory against LASK Linz in their second UEFA Champions League league-phase match at the Raiffeisen Arena. The win maintains Liverpool’s perfect record with six points from two matches and a goal difference of +4.

French forward Bradley Barcola led the attack with his first professional hat-trick, scoring in the 24th, 37th, and 66th minutes, ending a goal drought following his transfer from Paris Saint-Germain. Additional goals were scored by Ronald Araújo, Jeremie Frimpong, and Lewis Koumas. Kostas Tsimikas contributed two assists and wore the captain’s armband; manager Andoni Iraola noted that regulations regarding goalkeepers acting as captains can create “practical difficulties on the pitch.” LASK’s goals were provided by Robert Ljubicic and Florian Flecker, who scored twice as a substitute.

Regarding squad fitness ahead of the fixture against Brentford, midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai is expected to return to the starting lineup following a hamstring injury. Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo are expected to undergo late fitness tests, while Giovanni Leoni’s rehabilitation has been delayed by at least one month. Ryan Gravenberch remains unavailable due to suspension. Despite the European success, the club sits in ninth place in the Premier League following a recent loss to Manchester City.
