Liverpool will be looking for their first win as Premier League champions on Sunday when they welcome Aston Villa to Anfield.
Jurgen Klopp's side wrapped up the title in record time last month but, following a week of celebration after ending a 30-year wait for number 19, they were brought crashing back down to earth by Manchester City on Thursday night.
The Reds fell to their heaviest defeat of the season and second-heaviest of Klopp's entire reign as the former champions made a statement with a 4-0 win, although Liverpool remain 20 points clear of City at the top of the table.
The runaway leaders will be expected to return to winning ways against Villa as they look to maintain their perfect home record this season, and here Sports Mole rounds up all of their latest injury and suspension news ahead of the match.
