Next Up: Hull City (h)

Liverpool host high flying Hull City on Saturday as they look to maintain their position as Premier League leaders.

Both clubs enjoyed wins last weekend; The Reds at Blackburn and The Tigers came from behind to beat Middlesbrough at home.

Liverpool, of course, were also in midweek action when they enjoyed a successful night in Eindhoven, winning their Champions League group but resting Reina, Alonso, Gerrard and Kuyt – all four will return for the clash against Phil Brown’s men.

Rafa Benitez is still without record signing Fernando Torres, left back Fabio Aurelio and centre back Martin Skrtel.
