Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Monday's Merseyside derby with Everton in the Premier League.

Liverpool return to action on Monday evening when they square off against Everton in the Merseyside derby.

By the time that kickoff comes round at Anfield, Jurgen Klopp's side would have had nine days to stew over their 3-0 defeat at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

While that result has left Liverpool in 10th position in the standings, they may drop down to 11th spot depending on how Aston Villa fare versus Manchester City a day earlier.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the showdown with their resurgent neighbours.
