In remembrance of the 96 (all Liverpool fans) who perished in the Hillsborough Disaster.
Steven Gerrard will make his 300th league appearance for the club as Liverpool look to consolidate fourth spot against Blackburn!
Rafa Benitez makes three changes from the Arsenal victory in midweek, with Lucas, Alvaro Arbeloa and Ryan Babel coming in for the suspended Javier Mascherano, Sami Hyypia and the injured Peter Crouch.
The Reds XI in full is: Reina, Arbeloa, Aurelio, Skrtel, Carragher, Lucas, Alonso, Gerrard, Babel, Kuyt, Torres. Subs: Itandje, Riise, Hyypia, Voronin, Benayoun.

Lol. I was in the liverpoolfc.tv forum and when Stevie scored, this guy prompted everyone to sing the Stevie song (created by the Kopites, like duh). Haha sing along to the tune of the song "Can't Take My Eyes Off You", or better known as the Carlsberg song. Lol.
You're just too good to be true Can't take the ball off of you You've got a heavenly touch You pass like Souness to Rush And when we're all drunk in the bars We thank the Lord that you're ours
