Liverpool will be without captain Steven Gerrard and striker Fernando Torres for their Europa League second leg tie with Trabzonspor on Thursday.

Gerrard has a back problem while manager Roy Hodgson believes Torres is not ready to play three games in a row.

Joe Cole returns after missing Monday’s Premier League game through suspension but wantaway midfielder Javier Mascherano is left out.

Daniel Agger (concussion) and Maxi Rodriguez (illness) are missing.

I have a really bad feeling about tomorrow night with these players missing and if there is a repeat away performance like that seen at Eastlands on Monday night we will struggle to qualify for the group stages.
