Martin Skrtel will discover in the next 24 hours how long he will be out of action after a scan revealed posterior cruciate ligament damage in his right knee.
The Slovakian defender was stretchered off during Sunday's 3-2 victory at Manchester City after falling awkwardly on the edge of his own penalty area.
"Martin underwent a scan this morning which showed damage to the posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee," said club spokesman Ian Cotton.
"He will see a specialist tomorrow to assess the extent of the injury and will then have an accurate idea of the timescales involved before he is back playing again."
