Liverpool injury worries

|

Soucek likely to be fit

Liverpool have  injury worries ahead of the match against the Hammers on Saturday.

The Reds will be without Thiago Alcantara (hamstring) while Roberto Firmino (muscle) may again be absent.

It remains to be seen whether he will make it or not as the Hammers weigh up their own issues ahead of the game.
Tomas Soucek is expected to be fit after he had five stitches in a head wound during the FA Cup fifth round match against Southampton on Wednesday evening.
There remain doubts over Ryan Fredericks who has been suffering from a low grade groin injury whilst Aaron Cresswell is set to return after being rested for the Cup match.
The manager also has a decision to make on Issa Diop who was in fine form against the Saints and in the Premier League match against Leicester City
