Salah’s absence means that Jurgen Klopp needs to find a replacement on the wing. Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Salah form a devastating front three but this could be broken up.

There are four main candidates to take Salah’s spot. Divock Origi is one of the options and he can play anywhere across the front three. Xherdan Shaqiri is another but he is recovering from an injury.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain could play in an advanced role and he has been scoring recently. Alternatively, Adam Lallana might fancy Salah’s spot on the right.

Here are some tweets from Liverpool fans discussing who should start if Salah misses the Palace game.
