FA Barclays Premiership
March 4th 2006
Liverpool v Charlton. (Kick-off 5.15pm GMT)
Big changes from Rafael Benitez no doubt with one eye on the Champions League clash with Benfica next week. Carragher and Hyypia are back in tandem in the centre of the Reds defence, but are flanked by Djimi Traore and Jan Kromkamp. Djibril Cisse is likely to line up on the right side of midfield, with Crouch and Fowler chosen to play up front. Didi Hamann is to partner Steven Gerrard in the centre of the midfield. The subs bench is perhaps the strongest it’s looked all season.
