Steven Gerrard, Fernando Torres and Sami Hyypia return to the Liverpool team for tonight's Champions League opener in Porto.
The influential trio – who were rested at Pompey on Saturday – are back as Rafa Benitez looks to get off to a winning start in Group A.
The Spaniard makes six changes from the stalemate at Fratton Park.
His team in full is: Reina, Arbeloa, Finnan, Hyypia, Carragher, Babel, Pennant, Mascherano, Gerrard, Torres, Kuyt. Subs: Itandje, Agger, Lucas, Crouch, Voronin, Aurelio, Benayoun. -
Last season's runners-up, Liverpool, have also began their domestic campaign well although they were held to a 0-0 draw by Portsmouth FC at the weekend. Tonight Sami Hyypiä is included in their starting lineup to make his 97th appearance in UEFA club competitions.
- Porto have enjoyed a fine start to the season, winning their opening four Portuguese Liga matches, and adopt a 4-3-2-1 system tonight with Tarik Sektioui and Ricardo Quaresma supporting Lisandro López.
- Estádio do Dragão is the setting for this UEFA Champions League Group A meeting between two of the last four winners - FC Porto and Liverpool FC. The visitors will be hoping to overturn a record that has seen Porto emerge from their nine previous home games against English opposition unbeaten.

Benfica include former Milan player Rui Costa in their ranks and are yet to concede a goal this season in the Portuguese Liga under new coach José Antonio Camacho. They have been hit by injuries however that keep out defenders Luisão (knee), David Luiz (foot) and Marc Zoro (thigh), along with influential midfielder Petit.
- The Italian side are bidding to become the first to win back-to-back titles since the competition's rebranding and welcome back last season's top scorer Kaká tonight after he was rested for the weekend draw against AC Siena. Two-goal final hero Filippo Inzaghi also returns while Andrea Pirlo has recovered from a calf strain.
