    Liverpool will assess Glen Johnson's hamstring injury, while the in-form Luis Suarez is likely to start after beginning on the bench at Arsenal.

    Midfielder Raul Meireles suffered a collarbone injury in midweek and will be unavailable for several weeks.

    Bolton left-back Marcos Alonso is out for at least eight weeks after breaking a bone in his foot in the League Cup win against Macclesfield.

    Gretar Steinsson, Sam Ricketts and Tyrone Mears are also sidelined

    ____________________________

    Liverpool may have won this fixture last season but it will bring back few fond memories for fans of the Reds. Roy Hodgson was in charge, and the public voted with their feet; a crowd of 35,400 was the lowest for a Premier League match at Anfield for almost seven years and Hodgson lasted just one more game, a defeat at Blackburn, before being sacked.

    The end was also coming for Fernando Torres - his equaliser against Bolton was the last goal he scored at Anfield for Liverpool. Joe Cole scored Liverpool's winner - anyone remember him?

    How times have changed - if Liverpool win this weekend they will have taken seven points from their first three games; last season they needed nine games to get seven points on the board, by which time they were in the relegation zone.

    Bolton have started nicely, the optimism of the opening-day destruction of QPR far from extinguished by a battling defeat to Manchester City - though Owen Coyle will not want a repeat of the individual mistakes that helped City on their way last Sunday.

    There are lots of statistics and numbers to crunch in all that - here's one more amazing stat. Of all the Premier League players with 10 goals or more, Bolton's Ivan Klasnic can claim to be the second most prolific. He averages a goal every 177.7 minutes - only Manchester United's Javier Hernandez can better that!

    Suarez and Downing need to rape this weekend. My fantasy team needs to get back on track.

    Other than that.. hope they lose.

    I'm a huge fan of Kelly and I prefer a strong defence, Kelly is a better defender than Johnson but still has explosiveness to go forward. It all comes down to preference but I'd rather have Kelly in the side. Besides Enrique can balance out the attacking side since he can whip in a decent cross from the left at times.

    Kelly's a bit like Enrique going forward, both very powerful runners and can just knock players out of the way. I think we could have a very strong defence if we can sort out our centre-back woes.

    No he's not. Johnson is a very good defender. If he wasn't, he'd have been moved further up the field years ago.

    Kelly is and always will be a better defender than Johnson, Dan. I don't really see the debate.

    You know I'm not on the bandwagon though. I've seen Kelly's style of defending and he's far more powerful far more dominant in the air. He's the better defender. I'm not saying Johnson is shit either. Even Capello might flip Johnson off for Kelly soon, regardless of him being injured.

    Capello might not flip Johnson off for Kelly. Probably won't. He's spoken about giving Kelly a chance, but that's about it. If both are fit, Johnson will start over Kelly. Being powerful and dominant in the air doesn't make you a better defender anyway. Kelly's made his fair share of mistakes in that aspect as well.

    Kelly will become better than Johnson, but for now Johnson is the better player.

    Johnson needs to be playing further up the field where he would be best suited.
