The pair – both of whom were outstanding in the league-phase victory – picked up issues during the second period and will require assessment by the Reds’ medical team ahead of Sunday’s meeting with Manchester City.
Asked if he knew the extent of the injuries, Slot said in his post-match press conference: “No, not yet. I know where they have pain, but how bad or how good it is is difficult to judge so close after the game.
"This is what happens during a season. We missed Trent today, we missed Jota today, we missed Alisson today. We didn’t miss Trent because he was on the bench, but he couldn't play from the start, but Kostas we missed.
"This happens through a season. I am really hoping both of them are available to play because we want them all available, but if not someone else has to step up and until now this season everybody that I \[have\] selected to start has shown up.
"That's also what is going to happen on Sunday, if they can play but also if they can't play then other ones will step up."
