Liverpool's James Milner: Unlikely to play in FA Cup match
Milner (calf) is unlikely to play in Saturday's FA Cup match with Plymouth.
Analysis:
Milner could return for the EFL Cup semi final 11 January against Southampton, or 14 January against Manchester United in the Premier League. Alberto Moreno is expected replace Milner while he recovers. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp seems to think his injury is not that serious, "...Millie had this little issue with the calf. We were not sure, because of the intensity or whatever, that it wasn't more, but I am pretty sure we will not take the risk with him for the weekend."
