The Reds have held on to third place in the standings, but Manchester City remain only two points behind manager Jurgen Klopp's unit.

The hosts have carved out one of their most successful campaigns in recent memory and are eighth in the Premier League.

LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND - DECEMBER 13:  Tony Pulis, manager of West Bromwich Albion points as Jurgen Klopp, manager of Liverpool looks on during the Barclays Premier League match between Liverpool and West Bromwich Albion at Anfield on December 13, 2015 in Liv

Liverpool midfielders Jordan Henderson and Adam Lallana will miss the trip to the Midlands, as the visitors attempt to hang on to a UEFA Champions League qualification place in the top four.

According to BBC Sport, Klopp believes the two will return from injury before the end of April, and it's likely the German will start Roberto Firmino and Philippe Coutinho at West Brom.

Baggies manager Tony Pulis has said his squad is in good health but will assess a couple of unnamed players with knocks ahead of Sunday's match.

Pulis has once again taken a team with limited resources and talent and turned them into a side that is competing in the desirable half of the table.

However, West Brom only have one win to their name in the last five in the Premier League, and after avoiding a scrap against relegation, they could be unintentionally winding down their season prematurely.

This would open the door for Liverpool, who are desperate for three points.

STOKE ON TRENT, ENGLAND - APRIL 08: Roberto Firmino of Liverpool celebrates scoring his side's second goal with team-mate Philippe Coutinho during the Premier League match between Stoke City and Liverpool at Bet365 Stadium on April 8, 2017 in Stoke on Tre

It's been seven league games since the Reds capitulated to Leicester City on the road, but the 3-1 loss to the Foxes was their last defeat in the Premier League. Since then, they have beaten Arsenal and Everton and have appeared stronger in defence.

BBC Match Of The Day commentator Jonathan Pearce gave his pre-match assessment, per BBC Sport:

"

Liverpool can ill afford any slip-ups in the chase for a Champions League slot but West Brom can cause them real problems.

It's understandable that the Baggies have stalled since passing the 40-point safety mark. Their tiny squad is exhausted.

Tony Pulis has worked miracles and needs the reward of a treasure chest of summer transfer funds. This is also the sort of game to kick-start a new charge for a club record Premier League points haul.

They are so strong in the air at set pieces. Liverpool can't defend them or keep clean sheets. I expect a draw.

West Brom have been phenomenal in defence this term, but if Liverpool's top guns fire, the Reds should have the ammunition to steal the points.

The Baggies have already achieved their objectives this season, and Pulis has once again proved he is one of the best managers outside of the top-four teams in the league.
