England international full-back Glen Johnson is not fit having missed the last three games for Liverpool. Fellow defender Daniel Agger is still sidelined with a cracked rib. Craig Bellamy might return to the starting line-up. Tony Pulis will be without Ricardo Fuller for his attacking options as he is suspended following his red card for a stamp on Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic last week. He misses the first of three games for the ban. Striker Peter Crouch will play having been rested at Stamford Bridge.
