Liverpool take risk in Lions Den

By Chris O'Keefe

Liverpool travel to Millwall tomorrow with what's expected to be a depleted side in their Carling Cup clash at The Den.

Rafael Benitez is expected to play the likes Josemi, Igor Biscan and Florent Sinama Pongolle, all of whom didn't start the 2-0 victory against Charlton on Saturday.

Salif Diao may also figure in the game tomorrow, although this may be in doubt after his rather conspicuous performance at Fulham the week earlier.

First team regulars, Sami Hyppia, Luis Garcia and Dietmar Hamann are expected to play no part in the tie with other games following on the horizon.

Neil Mellor, who has suffered with injury problems over the past year may finally get a chance tomorrow night.
