Liverpool v Crystal Palace

Slot, the club or both have decided not to hold a press conference for this match and apparently they aren’t obliged to as they are for other competitions. Nevertheless, it’s not a good look after 5 defeats but hey.

Normally I would expect the Carabao cupo to be used for fringe and squad players though as they are all playing like fringe and squad players it doesn’t matter who he picks. I think though he will go strong because he won’t want to make it 6. Team: Mama, Bradley, Konate, VVD, Kerkez, Endo, Mac, Bosz, Gakpo, Ekitike, Salah. This assumes continuing injury issues for Jones and Gravy added to Alisson and Frimpong.
