Daniel Sturridge: (Thigh) Not Fit Yet

Sturridge has yet to return to full training from the thigh injury he picked up while on international duty, but Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said he will face a late fitness test to determine his availability for the Merseyside derby at Anfield on Saturday, the Liverpool Echo reports.

Analysis:

Sturridge being unable to train will certainly limit him in the match, so even if he does start, the likelihood of him playing the full 90 is extremely low. If he can't go, Fabio Borini is expected to start in his place alongside Mario Balotelli.
