Sturridge could be out for the rest of the season

Liverpool are again without striker Daniel Sturridge for Tuesday's Premier League trip to Hull and are unsure when he will be fit to return.

Sturridge, who has had an injury-hit campaign, has missed three games with a hip problem and manager Brendan Rodgers has admitted he does not know if he will play again this term.

"When he's been fit, he's been brilliant," said Rodgers.

"But it's just a case of getting him back on a consistent basis. Whether that's this season, or in preseason, has to be seen."

Midfielder Adam Lallana (groin) returned after a groin injury as a substitute at West Brom on Saturday while defender Mamadou Sakho (thigh) and midfielder Lucas Leiva (thigh) are getting closer to fitness.

Provisional squad: Mignolet, Can, Skrtel, Lovren, Ibe, Henderson, Allen, Moreno, Coutinho, Sterling, Balotelli, Jones, Johnson, Manquillo, Toure, Markovic, Gerrard, Brannagan, Lambert, Borini, Lallana.
