Liverpool starting line-up for Crystal Palace as double injury boost confirmed

Diogo Jota and Jordan Henderson return to the Liverpool squad as Jurgen Klopp names an unchanged lineup for the visit of Crystal Palace

Victory for the Reds is almost certain to secure a place in the top of the Premier League and Klopp has picked the side that beat Burnley 3-0 at Turf Moor on Wednesday.

Henderson returned to team training earlier this week and is back in the squad for the first time since limping out of the Merseyside derby defeat to Everton on February 20.

Jota has missed the last two games after picking up an injury in the 4-2 win over Manchester United but returns to the bench as the Reds aim to book a place in next season's Champions League.

Gini Wijnaldum will captain the team for what is likely to be his final appearance of a 237-game career for the Reds as he's selected in midfield alongside Fabinho and Thiago Alcantara.

LIVERPOOL: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Williams, Phillips, Robertson, Thiago, Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Salah, Mane, Firmino.

Subs: Adrian, Milner, Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain. Jones, Jota, Tsimikas, Shaqiri, N Williams.

PALACE: Guaita, Ward, Tomkins, Cahill, Riedewald, Mitchell, McCarthy, Kouyate, Townsend, Zaha, Ayew.
