Liverpool
The latest occupant of the Liverpool treatment room is, rather incredibly, Jurgen Klopp, who visibly tweaked a muscle when running to celebrate in the face of fourth official John Brooks at the weekend - a dose of karmic retribution, perhaps.
While the 55-year-old waits to learn the extent of his diagnosis, Liverpool continue to cope without Calvin Ramsay (knee) and Stefan Bajcetic (adductor), while Roberto Firmino and Naby Keita's muscular problems will rule them out too.
Thiago Alcantara was a notable absentee from the matchday squad on Sunday and was seen limping towards the benches, so the Spaniard's availability is also up in the air, and Klopp is facing an age-old dilemma with his attackers.
Diaz may not be considered for two starts in such quick succession, which could open the door for a recall for Darwin Nunez, as Jota has picked up a fresh knock and has emerged as a doubt.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Henderson, Fabinho, Jones; Salah, Gakpo, Nunez
Fulham
Fulham also ended the weekend with two fresh fitness concerns, and serious ones at that, as captain Tim Ream and midfielder Andreas Pereira were both taken off with worrying injuries against Man City.
Silva has confirmed that Ream has broken his arm and will sit out the remainder of the season, while Pereira was also admitted to hospital after leaving the field on a stretcher with a broken ankle and will not play again before the campaign concludes either.
The suspended Aleksandar Mitrovic and Layvin Kurzawa (knee) will keep Ream and Pereira company in the stands, while Willian is still a doubt with a thigh injury, so all of Tom Cairney, Sasa Lukic, Manor Solomon and Daniel James could battle to take Pereira's place. Tosin Adarabioyo will be a straight swap for Ream at the back.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Tete, Diop, Adarabioyo, Robinson; Reed, Palhinha, Cairney; Wilson, Vinicius, Solomon
Prediction: Liverpool 3-1 Fulham
