Rodgers wary of Tynecastle test

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers insists he is not taking victory over Hearts for granted despite his decision to rest key players for the clash at Tynecastle.

Steven Gerrard, Luis Suarez, Martin Skrtel and Glen Johnson have all been left on Merseyside ahead of tonight’s Europa League play-off first leg.

That means some fringe players will be involved against the Jambos, with one eye on Sunday’s Barclays Premier League visit of champions Manchester City.
