DC: Dejan Lovren
A player low on confidence after some poor performances this season, Dejan Lovren may get a chance to gain some confidence in this relatively easy-looking game.
DC: Kolo Toure
A good squad player, Kolo Toure has performed well this season and deserves another chance in the starting lineup for this match.
MC: Steven Gerrard
Despite just announcing his exit from Liverpool at the end of this season, Steven Gerrard is likely to feature in FA Cup games as he has one last stab at silverware for the Reds.
MC: Emre Can
After some fine recent performances, youngster Emre Can could be in line for a start in central midfield for this game.
MC: Joe Allen
Not always a regular starter for Liverpool, this seems like it might be a good game for Joe Allen to get some confidence and form going.
AMR: Adam Lallana
Having impressed greatly in recent games, Adam Lallana seems a good bet to start on the right-hand side.
AML: Lazar Markovic
With Raheem Sterling likely to be rested, Lazar Markovic could continue his recent improvement if given a start here on the left flank.
FC: Mario Balotelli
Despite a poor season so far, Mario Balotelli may have a chance to gain some confidence in this game if handed a place in the starting XI.
