DUO BACK FOR REDS

Liverpool will have full-backs Josemi and Djimi Traore back in their squad
for the trip to Aston Villa.

Both suffered injuries in Champions League defeat in Monaco a fortnight
ago, but Spanish defender Josemi's head wound has now healed and the French
left-back has recovered from an ankle problem.

Igor Biscan suffered a leg injury in the Carling Cup win at Tottenham in
midweek and is out of contention, while Milan Baros has begun ball work
after his hamstring trouble and is in line to return for Wednesday's
European home tie with Olympiakos.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa's rookie midfielder Steven Davis will make his
second start for the club against Liverpool.

The Northern Ireland Under-21 international impressed in his other
performance in the starting XI against Tottenham last month.

Davis will be given another opportunity as Villa manager David O'Leary will
be without Lee Hendrie and Thomas Hitzlsperger.

Hendrie is starting a three-match ban after his sending-off against
Manchester City while Hitzlsperger is ruled out with a thigh strain.
