Suarez Online video Ranking: 4 / 5

Benitez was held in high regard by the fans for the way he guided the club to Champions League success in the most extraordinary manner in 2005. Liverpool were trailing AC Milan 3-0 going into the half-time break, but they managed to come back and win the encounter. It was the fifth European title for the club. Even though Benitez was sacked, fans still loved him and they held him in high regard. Rodgers was appointed as the replacement for Dalglish in the summer. He has already made an improvement over the league position achieved by the club under Dalglish.

However, they remain several points away from the Champions League places.

“There is absolutely no doubt Rafa Benitez will get an excellent reception. Rafa won both the Champions League and FA Cup in his six years here. When you go to a club as a manager, then the cards are dealt differently, depending where you go in. This is a club that we are trying to push on and resurrect and move forward again. They were maybe going another way. It’s no disrespect to anyone who has been before, but the reality is we were eighth last season,” said Rodgers ahead of the match with Chelsea on Sunday.

The hosts have won just one of their last five matches, and go in to the game on the back of their 2-2 draw at Champions Manchester City last time out.

Brendon Rodgers men currently sit in eight position, though victory here would see them leap-frog Swansea City.

Daniel Sturridge may feature after recovering from a thigh injury, while Raheem Sterling is also poised to return. Philippe Coutinho could make his debut after signing from Inter Milan two weeks ago.

Top scorer Luis Suarez is favourite to open the scoring, and can widely be backed at 4.33 (10/3), whilst Bet 365 offer 7.5 (13/2) for Steven Gerrard to net first.

Liverpool are favourites for the victory at 1.4 (2/5) with Paddy Power, with West Brom as highly priced as the 10.5 (19/2) on offer from Bet Victor and the draw 5.25 (17/4) with the same firm.

The visitors, who sit one place and two points below Liverpool, are without a win in their eight games, and have lost five of their last six in the league.

Goron Popov will miss the game as he begins a three match suspension, though Youssouf Mulumbu is set to return from a knee problem. Peter Odemwingie may be selected after being disciplined for his attempt to force a move to Queens Park Rangers.

Odemwingie is 15.0 (14/1) to get the first goal of the game, with joint top scorers Romelu Lukaku and Shane Long 11.0 (10/1) and 15.0 (14/1) respectively.

The hosts currently sit ninth in the division, and are looking to reach the fourth round for a second time in six seasons, having faced Middlesbrough in January 2008.

Striker Jake Speight has six for the season so far, and is 15.0 (14/1) with a variety of bookmakers to give the home side a shock lead.

Paul Cox’s men are available at 15.0 (14/1) with William Hill to win the match, with Liverpool odds on at a best price of 1.25 (1/4). Bet 365 offer 7.0 (6/1) for the tie to go to a replay.

Liverpool, who were defeated by Chelsea in last seasons final, have lifted the FA Cup no fewer than seven times, and are 13.0 (12/1) with Bet Victor to make it eight on May 11^th.

Jose Enrique will miss the game through injury, so Andre Wisdom is expected to keep his place in defence, while top scorer Luis Suarez may be rested following the arrival of new signing Daniel Sturridge.

The former Chelsea man already has eight FA Cup goals to his name at the age of just 23, and is widely available at 4.5 (7/2) to add to that tally with the first goal of the game.

Liverpool went behind the last time they faced a non-league side before eventually beating Havant and Waterloovile by five goals to two, so you may be tempted to back the non-league side to take the lead at 4.75 (15/4) with Bet 365.

Suarez was also booked by the referee in the recent 3-1 defeat at the hands of Aston Villa. This extremely disappointing match meant that Liverpool were not able to capitalise on their recent run of good form, which has seen them close the gap on the teams chasing the fourth spot in the Premier league. As a result of this defeat, Liverpool now slip into the 12th position in the table. The yellow card received by Suarez was his sixth of the season and he is in danger of being suspended for two matches as a result of picking 10 yellow cards.

“He is a passionate lad. I didn’t think he deserved to be booked. I would never take that passion out of his game. That’s what makes him the player he is,” said the Liverpool manager after the match. It was an extremely embarrassing result for the Liverpool manager, who set up prior to the match that he finally felt that Liverpool will be capable of challenging for top four spot. Prior to this match, Liverpool actually enjoyed a good run of form that has seen them rise close to the top half of the table, but this defeat leaves them in the square one.
