Sturridge fitness to be monitored

8th Feb 2013 - Latest News

Daniel Sturridge will undergo a late fitness assessment to decide whether he can feature against West Bromwich Albion on Monday night.

The striker, who has scored four goals in six games since signing from Chelsea, withdrew from England duty this week after sustaining a thigh injury against Manchester City.

One player who definitely will be fit for Steve Clarke's return to Anfield is Raheem Sterling, who missed England U21s' win over Sweden with a dead leg.

Brendan Rodgers told reporters he had no new fitness concerns from the midweek internationals.

"Raheem was on the field this morning so he'll be fine," said the boss.

"Daniel we're just monitoring over the next couple of days. It's not overly serious but we just need to assess to see where he's at. We'll see by Sunday.

"Everyone else is fine."
