Liverpool have practically a clean sheet of health when they travel to West Ham on Saturday.
Jurgen Klopp’s dreams of winning a second Premier League title during his final season in charge are now hanging by a thread following Wednesday’s humiliating defeat to Everton in the Merseyside derby.
The Reds manager rested Darwin Nunez, Mohamed Salah, and Alexis MacAllister for the win against Fulham ahead of the short trip to Goodison Park, but it had little effect on their performance.
As a result, it remains to be seen whether Klopp alters his lineup again for the trip to east London in an attempt to exert as much pressure on Arsenal and Manchester City as possible, no matter how distant their title prospects are.
Cody Gakpo missed the defeat to Everton because his partner is expecting their first child, and it is unclear whether the Dutchman will play.
Diogo Jota is injured but expected to return before the conclusion of the season, and Stefan Bajcetic will not be pushed back into play.
With few other senior options available, Klopp would be making a big decision to drop one of his ineffective strikers in favour of young Jayden Danns.
Thiago Alcantara, Joel Matip, and Ben Doak are all out.
Liverpool’s expected XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Quansah, Van Dijk, Robertson; Endo, Elliott, Gravenberch; Salah, Nunez, Diaz
