Liverpool have another fairly quick turnaround between matches this weekend after Wednesday’s trip to Fenerbahce is followed by an away game against Crystal Palace on Sunday. Andoni Iraola managed to keep some of his key players fresh for the trip to Selhurst Park by rotating in midweek, as he attempts to lighten the load of a busy fixture schedule.Thankfully, Liverpool do not appear to have suffered any further fitness blows in Istanbul, and ahead of the clash with Palace, Iraola has reportedly been given the green light to bring Jeremie Frimpong back into the fold.Alisson and Virgil van Dijk have made costly mistakes in recent weeks.
Jeremie Frimpong is fit again Frimpong has been missing for Liverpool ever since coming off injured after just seven minutes on the pitch against Brentford in October. The 25-year-old appears to have been dealing with another hamstring injury, and it’s claimed that after Dominik Szoboszlai was rushed back too early from a similar problem last month, Liverpool’s medical staff will not take the same risk with Frimpong.
