Liverpool vs Birmingham City: Preview, Team News & Predicted Team
It’s a test of Liverpool’s nerve as they take on Birmingham City at home today after a rather inconsistent run of form.
Liverpool are back at fortress Anfield for their match against Birmingham City as they are looking to put their away woes behind them, but Kenny Dalglish will be boosted by Liverpool’s very spirited performance against Arsenal last week, as they grabbed a point in that game after sitting back for nearly the whole game.
Team News
Andy Carroll and Jamie Carragher are both doubtful for this game as both picked up knocks against Arsenal last week. Glen Johnson, Steven Gerrard and Fabio Aurelio are all out for this encounter.
Stuart Parnaby is expected to be fit to face the Reds after being withdrawn from last week’s match, although they will have Curtis Davies is on standby. Nikola Zigic (hip), Obafemi Martins (groin) and Martin Jiranek all remain major doubts.
Probable Lineup
Liverpool FC: 4-4-1-1
Pepe Reina, John Flanagan, Martin Skrtel, Kyrgiakos, Jack Robinson, Rodriguez, Lucas, Spearing, Meireles, Suarez, Kuyt
