The big boys next; yes, it's the Scousers away in the new year for the victors
v 
Blues boss Paul Sturrock was true to his word, changes he certainly made, four of them in fact, with both Anthony Grant and Ryan Leonard back in midfield as predicted along with Harris up front, joined by son of Luggy Blair, which is a surprise, as Ferdy, Dickinson and Hall are all given a rest, while JP Kalala is suspended.
Leonard has started on the right wing and Bilel Mohsni the left.
