Liverpool have been given an unexpected boost ahead of Saturday’s Premier League clash against Crystal Palace.
Crystal Palace are facing a goalkeeper crisis ahead of their Premier League trip to Merseyside.
Palace boss Hodgson is poised to hand 39-year-old Julian Speroni his first appearance since December 2017 with goalkeepers Vicente Guaita and Wayne Hennessey both injured.
Both are expected to be sidelined for a month, leaving Speroni as the only senior option available to former Liverpool boss Hodgson on his latest return to Anfield.
