Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Crystal Palace

Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash with Crystal Palace.

Liverpool will be looking to cement their spot in the Premier League's top four when they welcome Crystal Palace to Anfield on Sunday afternoon.

The Reds moved above Leicester City into fourth position in the table on Wednesday courtesy of an impressive 3-0 victory at Burnley.

Jurgen Klopp's side are only ahead of fifth-placed Leicester on goal difference, but another win this weekend should be enough for the Merseyside giants to secure a position in next season's Champions League.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of their latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
