Liverpool need a win over Fulham to keep their Champions League qualification hopes alive and to restore some semblance of confidence after losing 3-0 to PSG in midweek. The Champions League quarter-final first leg in Paris went about as well as it could have given Liverpool’s form this season.

With Jones sitting deeper, Liverpool could gain added stability. Alexander Isak is likely to get minutes as well, but will more than likely start from the bench to avoid re-injury so soon after his return to fitness.

Against a Fulham side capable of counter-attacking quickly, that added defensive structure could prove decisive as Liverpool push for another vital Premier League result. Predicted line-up: Mamardashvili, Frimpong, Konate, van Dijk, Robertson, Jones, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Salah, Ekitike, Wirtz.
