Jordan Henderson will miss the trip to Fulham with an ankle injury.

The Reds skipper picked up the injury in the midweek Champions League victory over Bayern Munich and was replaced by Fabinho.

The Brazilian is likely to be back in the starting line-up as a result.

Naby Keita missed the second leg of the last 16 tie with a knock and will be assessed.

Joe Gomez and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain remain long-term absentees.

Jurgen Klopp's side are aiming to keep pace with Manchester City at the top of the table, with a one-point deficit.

As Pep Guardiola's side take on Swansea in the FA Cup, Liverpool can move two points clear at the top.
