Team News: Steven Gerrard makes 700th Liverpool appearance

By Joe Fish, Reporter | 04 February 2015

Steven Gerrard makes his 700th Liverpool appearance in their FA Cup fourth-round replay against Bolton at the Macron Stadium, where Daniel Sturridge is on the bench.

Steven Gerrard will make his 700th Liverpool appearance in their FA Cup fourth-round replay against Bolton Wanderers tonight.

The long-serving skipper, who is leaving Anfield for Los Angeles Galaxy at the end of the season, becomes the third Reds player to reach the milestone after Jamie Carragher and Ian Callaghan.

He is one of two changes made by manager Brendan Rodgers following the 2-0 win at West Ham United on Saturday, with Joe Allen also back in midfield as Jordan Henderson and Lucas Leiva are rested.

Having scored as a substitute against the Hammers on his return from a five-month injury layoff, Daniel Sturridge will again likely have a role to play from the bench, but Mario Balotelli is left out of the squad entirely.

In terms of the hosts, Neil Lennon is without Adam Bogdan for the next six weeks due to injury, meaning that Andy Lonergan comes into the fold, while Matt Mills is also reinstated as one of three changes.

The two teams played out a 0-0 draw in the original tie on Merseyside 10 days ago.

Bolton Wanderers: Lonergan, Moxey, Wheater, Mills, Dervite, Ream, Vela, Feeney, Danns, Clough, Gudjohnsen
Subs: Fitzsimons, McNaughton, Hall, Trotter, Threlkeld, Iliev, Walker

Liverpool: Mignolet; Can, Skrtel, Sakho; Markovic, Allen, Gerrard, Moreno; Lallana, Coutinho, Sterling
Subs: Ward, Johnson, Lambert, Henderson, Sturridge, Manquillo, Borini
