Shell-shocked from their first Premier League away loss of the season, Liverpool have parity to restore when they welcome West Ham United to Anfield on Sunday afternoon.
The Reds suffered just their second top-flight defeat of the Arne Slot era at a fired-up Fulham in gameweek 31, going down 3-2 to Marco Silva‘s side at Craven Cottage despite taking the lead through an Alexis Mac Allister stunner.
However, that unforeseen setback should not precede a calamitous title collapse, as the champions-elect still have a healthy 11-point lead over Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table with just seven games remaining.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool’s latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Irons, who took a point off European-chasing Bournemouth in a 2-2 draw last week.

Type of injury: Head
Possible return date: April 13 (vs. West Ham)
Alisson Becker was again absent from the Fulham defeat due to concussion – somewhat surprisingly given more than two weeks have passed since he sustained the injury while playing for Brazil – but he will have surely made a full recovery in time for Sunday’s game.
