LIVERPOOL are set to be without striker Daniel Sturridge, as well as suspended captain Steven Gerrard and defender Martin Skrtel, for their FA Cup quarter-final replay with Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park on Wednesday, April 8 (7.45pm).

It has been reported that Sturridge could be out of action for a month after scans revealed a muscle tear in his hip.

He sustained the injury in Liverpool’s 2-1 Premier League loss to bitter rivals Manchester United at Anfield on Sunday.

During the same game Gerrard was sent-off for stamping on Ander Herrera while Skrtel was handed a retrospective ban for standing on David de Gea.

Sturridge pulled out of the England squad ahead of tonight’s Euro 2016 qualifier against Lithuania at Wembley.

England’s former Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson said: “I’m disappointed for Daniel because he didn’t really feel that it was any problem.

“When he did the scan he was devastated as he didn’t want to leave. He has a slight tear and you can’t play through that.”

Meanwhile, less than 3,500 tickets remain on sale to Rovers supporters with a database booking history for the replay.

Tickets cost £30 for adults, £22.50 for over 65s, £15 for 17-21-year-olds, and £5 for under 16s.

They will stay on sale until 2pm on the day of the all-ticket match.

With Liverpool having sold out their 7,200 allocation, more than 24,000 tickets have been snapped up in total.
