Liverpool team confirmed to face Fulham in the Premier League at Craven Cottage.

Liverpool have made three changes for their Premier League clash against Fulham at Craven Cottage.

Hugo Ekitike are not fit enough to make the squad for the Reds in the capital. Ekitike started the 0-0 draw against Leeds United on New Year’s Day and has hit 11 goals so far this season. However, Liverpool have confirmed the striker has picked up a minor injury, so Cody Gakpo comes into the starting line-up.

Florian Wirtz has been carrying a hamstring issue but is OK to feature from the outset. Jeremie Frimpong, who had recently recovered from a hamstring injury, drops to the bench with Alexis Mac Allister returning.

At left-back, Milos Kerkez returns with Andy Robertson dropping to the bench. There is some good news as Joe Gomez is fit enough to make the bench.

Liverpool: Alisson, Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Kerkez, Gravenberch, Jones, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Wirtz, Gakpo.

Subs: Mamardashvili, Woodman, Gomez, Chiesa, Robertson, Frimpong, Nyoni, Ramsay, Ngumoha.
