Liverpool has won every game so far this season and will look to continue that 100 per cent record in the Premier League on Saturday with a trip to Selhurst Park to take on Crystal Palace.

Hugo Ekitike will not be involved, though, as he was sent off for two bookable offenses against Southampton in the League Cup.

Arne Slot said it was "stupid" and "needless" and the Frenchman has since apologized.



Ekitike being out could open the door for Florian Wirtz to return to the starting XI.





Federico Chiesa would be another option for Slot to go with.

The Italian played well — and picked up two assists — against Southampton but is yet to really show his form in either the league or Champions League in a red jersey.

Away from the pitch, Ibrahima Konate's contract saga is rumbling on.

And FSG is getting closer to adding a second club to its soccer stable alongside Liverpool, with Getafe eyed up as an option.

Arne Slot will hold a press conference on Friday morning, where he will offer an update on Giovanni Leoni and preview the weekend's game.
