Alexis Mac Allister is unlikely to be seen in action for Liverpool until the New Year.
TyC Sports says Liverpool are concerned about the Argentina international's knee injury.
The midfielder suffered the setback last week against Sheffield United.
It has been said that the injury will take approximately 15 days to heal after suffering a deep cut which required stitches.
It means Mac Allister is a doubt for the Christmas double-header against Arsenal and Burnley.
