Taken from Sky Sports websiteLiverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has been ruled out of Saturday's vital clash at Hull City through injury.
Gerrard is still struggling with the groin injury which has ruled him out since the first leg of the UEFA Champions League defeat to Chelsea earlier this month.
The midfield dynamo was an unused substitute in the 4-0 win over Blackburn and failed to figure in the two 4-4 draws with Chelsea and Arsenal.
Reds boss Rafa Benitez has admitted the trip to Hull has come too early for Gerrard, but is confident the England international will be back for the home clash with Newcastle on May 3rd.
"He is not fit and won't be available. I think he will be available next week because he's improving, but this game is too soon," Benitez told the club's official website.
"The rest of the team is available - we have a full squad."
I'm not surprised the way he was sat on Tuesday.
Not a problem though it's only Hull and if we can put 4 past the other "big" sides, let me put it this way I think it'll be a walk in the park.
