In terms of the team, BBC reports have confirmed that Daniel Sturridge, Mamadou Sakho and Lucas Leiva remain unavailable because of injuries, while Adam Lallana and Jon Flanagan could play some part on their return.

West Brom are still after one more win to ensure that they’ll be playing Premier League football next season, with eight points currently separating them from the bottom three, so are unlikely to lie down easily at the Hawthorns.

Here are five key questions that could be answered today…

5) Can Adam Lallana make an instant impact?

We’re still waiting to get the best out of our £25m summer signing from Southampton, whose form has undeniably been restricted by injuries so far this season. He hasn’t featured at all since the game against Manchester United at the end of March, so will surely be hoping to make a positive return against Albion today. His first Liverpool goal came against West Brom at Anfield earlier this season, so here’s hoping for a repeat performance today.
