Adrian is hopeful of starting Liverpool’s match against Southampton despite suffering an ankle injury in a collision with a pitch invader.
The Spaniard, 32, was injured during post-match celebrations following the win over Chelsea in the Super Cup on Wednesday.
“Today I feel much better,” Adrian told the club website on Friday.
“I hope after more treatment it’s going to be much better. I’m very optimistic to start playing on Saturday again.”
The incident happened as the Liverpool players were huddled together, celebrating Adrian’s save of Tammy Abraham’s penalty in the shootout win.
A supporter, attempting to join the group, ran towards them, slipping as he was grabbed by a steward, and collided with several players.
Adrian added:
“It was a strange, weird situation because we were celebrating between us and one guy jumped from the crowd and started running.
“I think he slipped in front of us and also the security with him and made me a tackle from the side.”
