Close to return, late call Saturday
Allison (undisclosed) is close to returning to play and is a late call for Saturday's clash against Crystal Palace, according to coach Arne Slot. "Ali is close to a return to play, so let's see if tomorrow comes too early, yes or no."
Analysis: Allison has been sidelined since mid-March, making coach Slot's upbeat assessment a significant improvement from recent updates. The Brazilian goalkeeper's availability for Saturday will be determined after Friday's session, with the club clearly not wanting to rush him back before he is genuinely ready. If Allison cannot be cleared in time, Freddie Woodman is set to start between the posts against Palace with Giorgi Mamardashvili (knee) also unavailable for several weeks.
Unlikely for Tuesday
Allison (undisclosed) still needs more time to fully recover from his injury, as coach Arne Slot mentioned after Saturday's 2-0 win over Fulham "Tuesday I don't expect him. He's not training with the team yet, but he's working very hard on his recovery, so we hope to have him back in the near future. But he doesn't train with the team yet, so he will not be performing [on] Tuesday".
Analysis: Allison has already missed four club games with the issue he picked up in mid-March, and it seems he'll continue to work toward a return in the derby against Everton on April 19. Until the Brazilian is fit, Giorgi Mamardashvili should continue to guard the Reds' goal.
