Sturridge concern for Reds

Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge is carrying a knock and will be assessed ahead of tomorrow evening’s match at Wigan.

With no game last weekend the Reds have had plenty of time to get over any niggling problems and centre-back Martin Skrtel is fit again after a knee injury, although he is likely to be on the bench.

Forward Fabio Borini (shoulder) and defender Martin Kelly (knee) are the only two first-team players currently sidelined.

Provisional squad: Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Agger, Enrique, Lucas, Gerrard, Henderson, Coutinho, Suarez, Sturridge, Jones, Wisdom, Skrtel, Coates, Shelvey, Allen, Sterling, Downing, Assaidi, Suso.
