The Reds are seven points ahead of the standings with a win against Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon.
Jurgen Klopp had to adjust defensively in the midst of many injury problems.
Dejan Lovren joined Joel Matip and Joe Gomez on the operating table when he had a hamstring problem in the FA Cup defeat against the Wolves.
The German was then rocked by the news earlier this week that Trent Alexander-Arnold would miss a month of action after triturating his knee ligaments.
The English defender suffered a warm-up against Brighton but continued to play for 90 minutes.
But Klopp hinted at his press conference that the injury was far from being as serious as what was feared.
"Gini [Wijnaldum] and Trent we will decide by day, it's not cool, "said Klopp.
"The amazing thing about this story is that they both played 90 minutes [at Brighton].
The whole world has seen what happened to Trent. Which boy. Amazing to play this game, and after we had the information that he was hurting.
"Nothing happened to him during the match, it's just what happened before." Adrenaline is obviously an interesting thing, it gives you the opportunity to do a little more than what you expected.
"We'll see, we'll wait for both of them, that's for sure, very closed for Saturday, I do not want to close any doors before anyone tells me to close them."
Fans took on Twitter to express their joy at shock news.
A joke: "It's because we have the old physio of Man City that makes our players super human."
Another added: "Reckon Klopp was insolent on Trent. Ask the palace to guess who will start at RB. I'm sure it will be Ribena Boy. "
A third said, "All that Klopp gives to Trent, I want it too! We were told that he would be away for a month and now, Klopp says that he could start against Palace tomorrow ?! "
