Reds duo passed fit to face Chelsea

Liverpool’s key players, Steven Gerrard and Xabi Alonso have been passed fit to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

“Xabi and Steven both trained today and should be okay,” Rafa told the official website. “It wasn’t a hard session but I am confident they can play at Chelsea.”

However, Robbie Keane is still not 100 per cent fit.

“We’re still not sure about Robbie. He didn’t train today and we will have to see how he is tomorrow. We will make a late decision.”

Benitez has also confirmed that Spaniard Fernando Torres will not take part against the London club.

“Fernando won’t be involved. He is recovering well and should be fit again soon, but we have to be careful with the player.”
