Mario Balotelli has been ruled out of Liverpool's Champions League meeting with Ludogorets Razgrad tomorrow.
The Italian striker will miss the crucial Group B fixture with the Bulgarian minnows because of the groin problem that forced him out of the weekend's loss to Crystal Palace.
Balotelli did not travel with the Reds to Sofia as they strive to keep their hopes of progressing to the Round of 16 alive with a win.
The former Inter Milan, Manchester City and AC Milan attacker netted in Liverpool's 2-1 win over Ludogorets at Anfield when the two sides last met on September 16 in the group stage opener.
