Roberto Firmino remains a fitness doubt for Liverpool’s final Premier League clash with Middlesbrough at Anfield on Sunday.

The Brazilian attacker was absent from training once again when Jurgen Klopp’s squad reconvened at Melwood on Wednesday afternoon.

Firmino sat out last weekend’s 4-0 thrashing of West Ham after picking up a knock in the home stalemate with Southampton.

“Roberto struggled a little bit in the last few weeks with different parts of his body,” Klopp said following the contest at the London Stadium.

“After the (Southampton) game he said: ‘Yes, now I feel something’. It was too much for him to train. He still felt the muscle so there was no chance.”

The former Hoffenheim frontman will continue to have treatment in the hope that he can play some part in the game against relegated Boro.

If Firmino doesn’t make it then Klopp is likely to keep faith with the same line up which emphatically swept the Hammers aside.

Daniel Sturridge , who starred in the capital, could make back to back Premier League starts for the first time since September.

Liverpool must beat Middlesbrough to guarantee themselves a top-four finish.
