Joel Matip and Alisson returned to Liverpool training on Tuesday.

Brazil goalkeeper Alisson has not played since injuring his calf in the opening Premier League match of the season.

Matip has been excellent all season, but a knock against Sheffield United last month forced him to miss Liverpool's last two games.

Both are now in line for a return this weekend in a blockbuster clash with storied rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday.
