Adam Lallana and Daniel Sturridge have returned to Liverpool training to enhance manager Jurgen Klopp's options for the Premier League run-in.
Sturridge missed last week's game at Crystal Palace with a hip problem but Lallana has been sidelined since March 19 with a thigh injury.
Jordan Henderson's foot injury means he remains out but Lallana and Sturridge could be included in the Reds' matchday squad for the Monday Night Football game at Watford.
"Adam is back in team training today for the first time, which is very, very good news," confirmed Jurgen Klopp. "Hendo is not on the pitch so far and there's nothing new to say about [him]. Daniel is in team training again today too, and that's good.
"Now we have to train with the boys to see how they are, what shape they are in and then see what we can do with them."
Klopp also confirmed that defender Mamadou Sakho, who is on loan at Crystal Palace, has not suffered a ligament injury but is likely to miss the rest of the season.
"First of all, I think you saw the pictures with Mamadou, it looked really awful so it could have been nearly everything," Klopp said.
"Since we got the images from Crystal Palace, we know there are no ligaments involved, so in a situation like this - and maybe not for Crystal Palace - but for the player, it's the best thing he could get.
"I think he is out for a few weeks, but that is something that will be good at the end, but at the end of the season each injury is a big blow because there is not a lot of time to recover."
