Jurgen Klopp hoping Salah and Mane injuries are minor

Liverpool are red-hot favourites to win at Huddersfield on Saturday despite mixed news on the injury front.

Reds manager Jurgen Klopp has been vocal in his criticism of the international schedule and his mood won't have improved on hearing that Mohamed Salah (muscle strain), Sadio Mane (thumb) and Naby Keita (hamstring) had picked up injuries while playing for Egypt, Senegal and Guinea.

However, Salah and Mane's injuries are reported to be minor and it is expected that Virgil Van Dijk (rib) and James Milner (hamstring) will be available for the trip to Yorkshire.

Klopp may be reluctant to take risks at the start of a busy period (Liverpool must squeeze in six games before the November international break) but there has been a fairly minor market reaction to the injury news with Liverpool easing from 1-4 to 3-10 to take maximum points this weekend.

Fulham face an important game away to fellow strugglers Cardiff on Saturday and the future of manager Slavisa Jokanovic could depend on the outcome.

Jokanovic has shortened to 5-1 in Betway's next manager to go market, making him the second favourite. Jose Mourinho leads the betting at evens.

Shahid Khan has withdrawn his offer to buy Wembley Stadium for a reported £600m.

The Fulham owner has not ruled out making a future offer if there is more support from FA Council members.
