sportsmole.co.uk, 25 April 2024, 09:26
Liverpool will endeavour to bounce back from their disappointing Merseyside derby defeat in midweek when they travel to the London Stadium to face West Ham United in the Premier League on Saturday lunchtime.

Jurgen Klopp's title ambitions suffered a significant blow on Wednesday as his side were beaten 2-0 by relegation-threatened rivals Everton at Goodison Park.

The Reds have now lost two of their last three Premier League games and although they remain second in the table, they sit three points behind leaders Arsenal, while Manchester City in third have two games in hand, at the time of writing.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with David Moyes's side, who were thrashed 5-2 by Crystal Palace last time out.
