Liverpool face their FA Cup final opponents in the league tonight and Rafael Benitez has admitted he may rest some of his first team regulars ahead of the Cardiff showdown.

"We know the game tomorrow is not going to be the same as the one in Cardiff," said Benitez.

"I will decide today whether to rest players. I must see how the players are, but it will be an idea to give some players a rest.

"We have to be careful. We have played a lot of games recently and I need to watch the training sessions to see which players are fit and who needs a rest.

"Some players have played a lot of games and we have another match on Saturday. It's not easy for them to play so regularly."
