Liverpool's hopes of Premier League glory could officially be extinguished before they head to the West Midlands to take on Aston Villa on Monday night.
The Reds just about kept their dreams of stardom alive by beating Tottenham Hotspur 4-2 last weekend, where Mohamed Salah, Andrew Robertson, Harvey Elliott and Cody Gakpo were on target.
Jurgen Klopp's side therefore have a strong hold on third place in the table, but if Arsenal or Manchester City win over the weekend, Liverpool can no longer top the standings.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with the Lions, whose Europa Conference League run ended at the hands of Olympiacos in midweek.
