It was hoped he would pass a late fitness test to make the squad for the game at Anfield.
 
But Kolo Toure and Mamadou Sakho will instead likely start in the heart of defence.
Sturridge, meanwhile, is deemed not ready to return to the first team after suffering a set-back on his recovery from a number of niggles.
The England striker underwent knee surgery back in September and suffered a hamstring strain in December.
 
Simon Mignolet, under the spotlight after his performance in the Reds' 3-3 draw with Arsenal on Wednesday, is likely to remain in goal, with Nathaniel Clyne and on-loan full-back Steven Caulker pushing for starts.
Christian Benteke, who came off the bench against Arsenal, may also get the nod for Sunday.
Liverpool provisional squad: Mignolet, Clyne, Toure, Sakho, Moreno, Henderson, Can, Milner, Ibe, Firmino, Lallana, Ward, Caulker, Smith, Lucas, Allen, Teixeira, Benteke, Randall, Chirvella, Ojo, Sinclair
