Crystal Palace vs Liverpool: Klopp holds Sturridge and Coutinho in reserve

Gareth Makim

Can Liverpool overcome their horrendous record at Selhurst Park today?

Jurgen Klopp has made just two changes to the line-up which dominated Manchester City at Anfield for this afternoon’s game, with Mamadou Sakho and Alberto Moreno returning to the defence in place of Kolo Toure and Nathaniel Clyne.

That leaves both Philippe Coutinho and Daniel Sturridge on the bench, giving Klopp a host of game-changing options should things not go the Reds’ way.

Meanwhile, Palace, who are looking for their first win in six league games, make three changes from the side which drew 2-2 against Sunderland midweek.

Martin Kelly is dropped for the clash against his former side, while Jordan Mutch and Connor Wickham miss out, with Papa Souare, Joe Ledley and Emmanuel Adebayor coming in.
