How Liverpool are shaping up for the game against Crystal Palace

Liverpool will be without Thiago Alcantara, Curtis Jones and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in midfield for Monday's game against Crystal Palace, but Naby Keita returns from illness after missing the opening day draw against Fulham.

Kostas Tsimikas could also return after a knock ruled him out of the trip to Craven Cottage last weekend. Klopp said on Friday: "A couple of guys are coming back - Naby will be back for Monday and Kostas will train today for the first time, so he could be back as well. That's the situation."

More Liverpool news:

For this game Trent Alexander-Arnold would reach his 150th Premier League game, while Roberto Firmino would reach his 200th. Palace's Michael Olise is set to return from his foot injury, although the game will come too soon for James McArthur and James Tomkins.

"Michael has trained all week with the squad, so it's possible he'll be with the squad," Eagles boss Patrick Vieira told reporters. "The other two, they'll be too short for them. [Nathan Ferguson] just had a setback. It's too early to talk about it, but obviously he hasn't trained in the last few days with the team."
