Liverpool are almost at full strength for their Premier League trip to Fulham on Sunday.

Jurgen Klopp went strong on Thursday night as the Reds boss attempted to overturn a 3-0 Europa League quarter final first leg defeat to Atalanta.

Almost all of Liverpool’s big guns started in Bergamo but Klopp’s side could only score a solitary goal – an early penalty from Mohamed Salah.

Their comeback mission failed and Sunday’s shock defeat to Crystal Palace at home has left them with little more space for a slip-up in the title race.

While Thiago Alcantara, Joel Matip and Ben Doak are long-term absentees, Liverpool have almost their full compliment available.

Conor Bradley is facing a short spell on the sidelines, although Trent Alexander-Arnold’s return from injury means the Northern Irish international would be unlikely to start anyway.

Alexander-Arnold has only recently come back into the fold and Klopp confirmed after the European exit that the England international was still working his way back up to full fitness.

Stefan Bajcetic has returned to action but is likely to be eased back into first-team football, such has been the extent of his injury problems.

Darwin Nunez could replace Cody Gakpo up front for Liverpool, while Wataru Endo may come back into central midfield.

Doubts: Bajcetic

Injured: Bradley, Matip, Doak, Thiago

Time and date: 4.30pm BST on Sunday 21st April, 2024

Venue: Craven Cottage
