Liverpool have no time to feel sorry for themselves. Yes, they are out of the FA Cup and, yes, they stand on the brink of an exit from the Champions League.
Add that to the fact that their hopes of retaining the Premier League title they won at a canter last season are long gone, and there is no disputing it has been a disappointing campaign.
But Arne Slot and his players must rally themselves and achieve what is the club's minimum objective - qualifying for next season's Champions League.
FOLLOW ALL THE ACTION FROM LIVERPOOL V FULHAM RIGHT HERE
And Liverpool can take a big step in the right direction this evening with victory at home to a Fulham side who have ambitions of gatecrashing the European places.
So how should Reds boss Slot line-up given he may have one eye on Tuesday's Champions League quarter-final decider against Paris Saint-Germain, who will be favourites to progress but whose 2-0 first-leg advantage is not insurmountable?
Our Liverpool writers have their say...
The back five experiment at PSG can be consigned to the dustbin for this one, its four at the back for me and a return for Andy Robertson, who is set for a hero’s ovation after his announcement that he will leave at the end of the season. Jeremie Frimpong starts at right-back.
In midfield, Curtis Jones returns in place of Alexis Mac Allister. Dominik Szoboszlai and Ryan Gravenberch keep their places.
I’m going to start Alexander Isak. The Sweden international needs minutes and may likely tire as the games wears on after so long out but he could still be important this season.
Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo return also. Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike can wait in the wings.
My team (4-3-3): Mamardashvili; Frimpong, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Jones, Szoboszlai; Salah, Isak, Gakpo.
Not long to go now, folks. Just the seven Premier League games remain in a season that feels like it has gone on forever for Liverpool.
Fulham are up next at Anfield this evening. What, though, is Reds boss Arne Slot to do?
With this the second of three games in seven days - and how often that has been asked of Liverpool this campaign - there are going to have to be changes.
Not in goal, though. That remains Giorgi Mamardashvili. And with a return to 4-2-3-1, Andy Robertson can come in at left-back and Dominik Szoboszlai can go to right-back for this one. Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk are the centre-backs.
Midfield also sees some alterations, with Curtis Jones and Alexis Mac Allister the deeper duo and Florian Wirtz in the number 10 role.
Up front, it's all change with Rio Ngumoha left, Mohamed Salah on the right and Cody Gakpo down the middle.
My team (4-2-3-1): Mamardashvili; Szoboszlai, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Jones, Mac Allister; Salah, Wirtz, Ngumoha; Gakpo.
