FERNANDO TORRES is in line for a shock Liverpool return in the fourth-placed shootout at Manchester City a week on Sunday.
The Spanish striker, 25, had knee surgery on January 16 and it was feared he might need two months to recover.
But he began running again this week, ahead of schedule, and - if he keeps up his progress - could feature at Eastlands.
It is at the other end where the Reds are struggling ahead of the vital Premier League clash, which they cannot afford to lose.
Greek centre-back Sotirios Kyrgiakos is banned following his red card in Saturday's Merseyside derby.
Fellow defender Jamie Carragher is battling to make the game after limping out of Wednesday's defeat at Arsenal with a damaged groin.
There are fears it could keep him out for 10 days - which would take him right to the wire as far as the City game is concerned.
