LIVERPOOL have named a strong squad for tonight's Europa League clash in Braga.
However, boss Kenny Dalglish will be without Luis Suarez, the man who inspired Sunday's 3-1 win against Man United.
Dirk Kuyt might have netted a headline-grabbing hat-trick but it was Suarez who pulled the strings.
With the striker unavailable it could be the right time to unleash Andy Carroll who made his debut as a sub against United. The England hitman is 6-1 with 888sport to score first while Kuyt is 13-2 at bodog and others.
Portuguese star Raul Merelies is 7-2 at Paddy Power to score at any time as he bids to impress in his homeland.
On their visit to Sparta Prague in the previous round Dalglish played for a draw and got it.
I can see him doing the same in Braga as Liverpool don't need to bust a gut with an Anfield return to come. The home side have beaten the likes of Celtic, Sevilla and Arsenal at their stadium so won't be easy meat.
The draw pays 9-4 at Ladbrokes while Braga are 21-10 with Betfred and Liverpool 6-4 with Paddy Power and bodog.
