The decision wether Steven Gerrard will start is not yet taken, but the skipper will be in the squad for Saturdays day.
Benitez says: "This is a very important game, so we know it will be really good if he can play. But if we were to lose him for the next few weeks it could be a big risk. I will talk with him and the doctor on Saturday morning before deciding."
Kick-off at 12:45.
