The reds face off against Sparta Prague in the 1st Leg of the last 32 Europa League tie on Thursday evening. Despite managing other clubs in Europe, this will be Kenny Dalglish’s first European game as manager of Liverpool FC.
Steven Gerrard and Daniel Agger however, who missed the weekend’s game against Wigan, will remain on Merseyside as they battle to return to fitness ahead of the second leg at Anfield in a weeks time. Christian Poulsen’s wife is in labour so he misses the trip.

The squad for this game is:
Reina, Jones, Gulacsi, Johnson, Flanagan, Aurelio, Robinson, Kyrgiakos, Wilson, Carragher, Kelly, Skrtel, Meireles, Cole, Maxi, Jovanovic, Lucas, Coady, Ince, Sterling, Pacheco, Kuyt, Ngog.
Andy Carroll has also travelled with the rest of the team.
Kick of is at 8.05pm.
