Liverpool will be without midfielder Marie Hobinger for Sunday’s game at Manchester United due to a groin injury.
The 23-year-old Austrian international will have a scan this weekend.
Matt Beard’s side are also without defenders Gemma Evans and Hannah Silcock, who both sustained concussion on international duty with Wales and England’s under-23s respectively.
“It’s a big blow. We haven’t got any of the others back that were injured, apart from Jasmine Matthews,” said manager Beard.
“It has been a bit frustrating. The injuries just keep mounting up.”
It means 17-year-old Zara Shaw is set to start against United as Liverpool hope to close the six-point gap their rivals currently have on them.
“I thought she was excellent against Newcastle and she had a fantastic [under-17s] World Cup,” said Beard.
“She’s a dream to work with. When she did her anterior cruciate ligament, the way she went about it was so mature and so positive.
“She’s a fantastic talent. She’s going to be a great player in the future. If I could have played her at 15 years old, I would have because she was ready then.”
