Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers set to rest Christian Benteke for Europa League tie with Bordeaux
BRENDAN RODGERS is considering resting Christian Benteke when Liverpool return to European competition tomorrow.
 
The Liverpool manager will shake up his squad for the Europa League game with Bordeaux and Benteke, who has had some fitness issues, may remain on Merseyside ahead of Sunday's Premier League game with Norwich.
Philippe Coutinho is likely to make the trip to France after being suspended for last Saturday's defeat by Manchester United, while Adam Lallana is fit again after injury.
 
Rodgers must decide whether to give goalkeeper Adam Bogdan his debut or stick with Simon Mignolet.
Jordon Ibe is also likely to start having committed his international future to England. Nigeria had been hoping to persuade Ibe to pledge his allegiance to them.
