Lukaku handed rare Chelsea chance for Liverpool clash

Chelsea boss Roberto di Matteo has included Romelu Lukaku in his squad for their clash at Liverpool.

The former Anderlecht star has been used sparingly in his first season in England.

Ryan Bertrand, who impressed at left-back recently when he deputised for Ashley Cole, is in the travelling party with Sam Hutchinson.

Daniel Sturridge, who was on the bench for Chelsea's fourth FA Cup win in six years, is expected to start up front with Fernando Torres.
