Liverpool will be aiming to pick up their first win of the 2022-23 Premier League season when they welcome Crystal Palace to Anfield on Monday night.
The Reds went behind twice against Fulham courtesy of Aleksandar Mitrovic's header and penalty before restoring parity through Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah.
Jurgen Klopp's side now make their return to home comforts seeking to right the wrongs of last weekend against a Palace side whose opening fixture ended in a 2-0 loss to Arsenal.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Eagles.
