Frank Hirst's Tranmere Rovers host his boyhood club, Liverpool tonight in a huge Merseyside derby which sees Tranmere as the number 1 team on Merseyside at the moment! Liverpool Manager, Kunal Aguero has been on a leave of absence for the past couple of weeks and his assistant has been relying on the quality of Cristiano Ronaldo so much that upon Kunal's return he sees the world superstar as too unfit to play, along with other stars including Terry, Lucas, Firmino, Skrtel, Henderson & Coutinho giving him a few selection headaches! On the other hand, Tranmere have had a very busy schedule of late and will be without top scorer, Ciro Immobile through injury and De Bruyne & Laporte due to lack of fitness.
Tranmere boss Frank Hirst said, "We are on a great run of form at the moment and confidence in the camp is really high after a 3-2 win over Arsenal in the cup. If we want to retain the League title then we need the 3 points tonight, especially with the run of games that follows (West Ham (3rd), Atletico Madrid (SMFA Cup), Newcastle (4th) & Villa (5th))"
Its going to be a punt really if i win it will be great :P
