Xabi Alonso is set to return from a ten match injury absence in Wednesday’s Carling Cup quarter-final tie at Chelsea. The Liverpool midfielder has been filled in by Javier Mascherano in recent weeks and will play in the big Carling Cup match on Wednesday.

  • Alonso has been sidelined since the 1-1 Premier League draw at home to Arsenal in October with a metatarsal injury.



    Manager Rafael Benitez told the Reds’ website: “Xabi is training normally and should be available for the match at Chelsea.



    “We are going into a busy period with lots of games so it is important to have our best players available.”
