Today?s Main LFC Headline
After the longest international break in history, the Reds? next game is within sight!
Arne Slot?s side host Chelsea in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon (4.30pm BST), but will Mac Allister be fit to take part?
It looks like he will, with the 25-year-old set to return for Argentina against Bolivia on Tuesday night.
According to Clarin, the midfielder suffered a recurrence of a right adductor injury he suffered a month ago, but he has overcome it.
A work overload led to him being forced off at half-time away to Crystal Palace, with Slot being cautious, and Argentina left him out of last week?s 1-1 draw with Venezuela.
We?ll all hope Mac Allister doesn?t feature against Bolivia, but there is a strong chance he partners Enzo Fernandez and Rodrigo De Paul in the middle of the park.
Fingers crossed?

Liverpool FC: On this day
On this day in 2010, Liverpool won a second case in the High Court against much-loathed former owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett.
It was a seismic moment in the club?s history, following their doomed reign that threatened to destroy the club financially.
The following day, the sale of Liverpool to New England Sports Ventures was completed, allowing the Reds to kick on and enjoy a better future.
While FSG have rightly received criticism down the years, they deserve credit for turning things around, with Hicks and Gillett one of the worst things to ever happen to the club.
