Liverpool return to league action when they travel to Tottenham next Saturday, while Milner’s Brighton play host to Sunderland on the same day.
Speaking after his side’s victory on Saturday, Liverpool boss Slot said: "We had to work really hard for this win because we faced a very good team that kept going to the end. For the first time in weeks, I feel like we had a bit of luck today. We have a clean sheet and in other games we have conceded three without the other team having as many chances.
"In the second half in the moments they had, when we were together in and around our box. We had chances on the counter but I quite liked the way we played. Maybe we deserved this bit of luck, because of the mentality that we showed and the injuries and other things like that."
