Goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili is set to start in place of Alisson Becker, who is out due to an unspecified reason. The backline will also be missing Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni, both of whom are recovering from knee injuries.
Further up the pitch, midfielder Wataru Endo is out with an ankle/foot injury, while midfielder Hugo Ekitike is dealing with a calf/shin/heel injury. Additionally, the team will be missing Florian Wirtz, who is suffering from a stomach infection and is on antibiotics.
On a positive note, star player Mohamed Salah returns to the lineup, one of his final games for the club before he leaves this summer. This will be a bittersweet moment for Salah, as he says goodbye to the fans in his last away game.
Despite the challenges, Slot is looking to his team to make a strong comeback and secure the three points against Villa.
