Liverpool are hopeful that injured defenders Martin Skrtel and Fabio Aurelio will make a return to action early next month. Aurelio strained his right thigh in the 2-1 win over Blackburn on February 28 and his absence has caused problems for manager Rafael Benitez as it has left him with only Emiliano Insua at left-back.
Centre-back Skrtel's absence has not been noticed as much as Benitez has been able to call on a combination of Jamie Carragher, Daniel Agger and Sotirios Kyrgiakos.
"Both are still injured and will need some time, but it's only a question of a couple of weeks. It depends for each one," said Benitez.
