The two sides last met in a fiercely competitive September 13th Premiership match that saw Jamie Carragher suffer a broken leg through an X-rated challenge from Lucas Neill.
The Reds' impressive 3-1 win at Ewood Park was, of course, greatly overshadowed by the ensuing war of words between Gerard Houllier and Blackburn Rovers counterpart Graeme Souness.
An opportunistic Sky Sports will provide live coverage of the tie in the hope that the action off the pitch between Souness and Houllier may be as fiery as the football on it.
