LIVERPOOL v Blackpool: Steven Gerrard to return but left-back spot a concern for Roy Hodgson

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard is set to return to the starting line-up for the Barclays Premier League visit of Blackpool on Sunday.The midfielder was rested for yesterday's Europa League goalless draw in Utrecht and manager Roy Hodgson will hope he can inject some much-needed creativity against the Seasiders. Playmaker: Liverpool badly missed the rested Gerrard in the Europa LeagueThere is a problem at left-back as Paul Konchesky (hamstring) and Fabio Aurelio (Achilles) are still injured while usual stand-in Daniel Agger has a groin problem which saw him miss the trip to Holland.Martin Kelly, a centre-half who has been occasionally been deployed at right-back, filled in against Utrecht but did not look particularly comfortable.Provisional squad: Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Skrtel, Kelly, Meireles, Gerrard, Poulsen, Cole, Kuyt, Torres, Jones, Kyrgiakos, Babel, Pacheco, Ngog, Lucas, Rodriguez, Jovanovic.CLICK HERE FOR THE WEEKEND TEAM NEWS IN THE BARCLAYS PREMIER LEAGUE
