Portsmouth v LIVERPOOL: Glen Johnson right back in the side to face Pompey

Liverpool defender Glen Johnson has been passed fit to face his former club Portsmouth at Fratton Park. The England right-back, who left Pompey to move to Anfield in the summer, has been troubled by a hamstring injury and missed Wednesday's victory over Wigan as a precaution. Shoring up the back-line: Johnson (left) returns to the defenceStriker Fernando Torres is likely to start having come off the bench to score against the Latics but winger Albert Riera still has a hamstring problem and is not fit. Forward Ryan Babel returns to the squad after an ankle injury. Provisional squad: Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Agger, Insua, Benayoun, Gerrard, Mascherano, Aquilani, Kuyt, Torres, Cavalieri, Lucas, Aurelio, Skrtel, Kyrgiakos, Ngog, Babel, Degen.
