Liverpool are to appeal against the red card given to Curtis Jones during their controversial 2-1 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
Jones was sent off for fouling Yves Bissouma on 26 minutes after a video assistant referee (VAR) intervention.
Referee Simon Hooper initially gave Jones a yellow card for the challenge, but changed his decision after going to the pitchside monitor.

Midfielder Jones, 22, faces a three-game ban if the card is not overturned.
If the dismissal is upheld, he would miss Liverpool’s Premier League games against Brighton, Everton and Nottingham Forest.
