Nine players could miss this evening's clash between Liverpool and Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup fourth round. The Reds will be determined to return to winning ways when they take on Oliver Glasner's side at Anfield.

Liverpool have lost five of their last six matches across all competitions, including defeats to Crystal Palace, Chelsea, Manchester United, and Brentford in the Premier League, as well as Galatasaray in the Champions League. Despite a summer spending spree of nearly £450m, the Merseyside outfit have disappointed.

Arne Slot is feeling the heat to turn things around, and a successful cup run could provide the spark his team needs. The Reds will be eager to settle the score with the south Londoners, but they will have to do so without some key players.

Alisson Becker, Jeremie Frimpong and Giovanni Leoni have all been ruled out of Wednesday's match due to injury. Ryan Gravenberch and Alexander Isak are also doubts after missing the 3-2 defeat to Brentford at the weekend due to ankle and groin issues, respectively.
