Preparing for Porto v Liverpool

Fabio Aurelio is traveling to Portugal to play for the first time this season having recovered from a ruptured Achilles tendon suffered last year.

His return is good news as Mohamed Sissoko and John Arne Riise will miss Tuesday's Champions League match against Porto. Left-back Riise is ruled out of the Group A encounter with a groin injury he picked up on international duty with Norway last week.
