Brendan Rodgers coy over Liverpool team selection

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has refused to reveal whether Steven Gerrard and Luis Suarez will be involved in Thursday's Europa League encounter with Udinese at Anfield.

The pair were amongst a number of senior players who were left out of the Reds' opening victory over Young Boys two weeks ago.

"I will do what I've done in most of the games and I will have a look at the group," Rodgers told reporters.

"I always look at each game and pick a group and team to win it. Udinese will be a very strong team, they've got some excellent players and have had some excellent results this season so far - they've beaten AC Milan and are unbeaten in their last five games."

The Merseysiders are currently top of Group A, while Udinese sit third.
