Liverpool head to Fulham fully aware that dropping any more points is not an option, following a surprising 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace at Anfield last week.
Having led the Premier League for 11 out of the last 13 game weeks, the Reds now find themselves in third place, trailing behind both Manchester City and Arsenal.
With only six games remaining in the season, nothing less than three points will suffice to keep their title hopes alive.
The recent exit from the Europa League at the hands of Atalanta means that the Premier League is now Liverpool’s sole focus for silverware this season.
On the other hand, Fulham have solidified their position as a mid-table team capable of challenging anyone on their day.
Their recent form includes impressive victories against top-half teams like West Ham and Tottenham, but also disappointing defeats to relegation-threatened sides like Nottingham Forest.
Liverpool should be cautious of Rodrigo Muniz, who enjoyed a prolific spell with eight goals in as many games during February and March.
Despite his recent goal drought, Muniz will undoubtedly be eager to find the back of the net once again.
Liverpool’s injury concerns include long-term absentees Thiago Alcantara, Joel Matip, and Ben Doak.
However, with Trent Alexander-Arnold returning from injury, the team is nearly at full strength.
Conor Bradley is facing a short spell on the sidelines, but with Alexander-Arnold back in contention, Bradley is unlikely to start.
Jürgen Klopp has confirmed that Alexander-Arnold is still working his way back to peak fitness after his recent return to action.
Similarly, Stefan Bajcetic is back in the mix but is expected to be gradually reintroduced to first-team football due to his injury history.
Up front, Darwin Nunez could be a potential replacement for Cody Gakpo, while Wataru Endo may return to bolster the central midfield.
Liverpool predicted XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Roberston, Endo, Mac Allister, Jones; Salah, Nunez, Diaz
