Liverpool facing injury crisis ahead of Crystal Palace clash

Liverpool are facing a major injury crisis, especially in their midfield department, with Thiago Alcantara ruled out for at least six weeks.

According to Sky Sports, the midfield maestro picked a hamstring injury during his side's encounter with Fulham.

Meanwhile, the trio of Naby Keita, Curtis Jones and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain missed the Fulham clash due to injury and illness.
