Henderson makes way for Lucas, as Enrique and Coutinho are not fit enough to start…
Team news:
Brendan Rodgers will make small changes to the side that drew to Newcastle last weekend, with Lucas expected to return to the starting lineup. He could take place Jordan Henderson’s place in midfield, as with the manager’s 3-5-2 formation there is only room for one central midfielder alongside Steven Gerrard.
After a shaky outing against the Magpies, £18m summer signing Mamadou Sakho will likely drop to the bench in favour of Daniel Agger, who has found it hard to get back in the team following his return from injury.
He will start alongside in-form duo Martin Skrtel and Kolo Toure, with Glen Johnson playing at right wing-back.
Victor Moses should continue in his no.10 role behind Daniel Sturridge and Luis Suarez, as first-choice playmaker Coutinho is still one week away from returning from injury.
