Jürgen Klopp is hoping Liverpool still make the most of home advantage when Crystal Palace arrive on Wednesday night despite the absence of supporters.
The Reds will play a competitive game at Anfield for the first time since the Premier League's return, having resumed the season with a goalless draw at Everton in a behind-closed-doors fixture at Goodison Park on Sunday.
The lack of spectators is a reality all 20 clubs across the league face for at least the remainder of 2019-20 due to COVID-19 pandemic.
While acknowledging the vital part fans play, the boss believes familiarity in an environment can help his players go one step closer to securing the league title.
