Team news ahead of Liverpool's Europa League third-round qualifier against FC Gomel in Belarus on Thursday night.

Carroll, who faces an uncertain future at Anfield after being linked with Newcastle and West Ham, has not made the trip due to a groin strain.

New signing Fabio Borini could participate, but Luis Suarez and Craig Bellamy are on Olympic duty.

Liverpool (from): Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Skrtel, Agger, Enrique, Spearing, Gerrard, Shelvey, Henderson, Downing, Borini, Doni, Kelly, Flanagan, Sterling.
