Liverpool vs Arsenal (Posting from non-chelski Fan)

Ahead of Tuesday's Carling Cup quarter-final, Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez is keen to gain revenge for Arsenal's 3-0 Premiership win over his side when facing the Gunners. The Carling Cup may be fourth in lists of importance but Benitnez wants to win it. Benitez has revealed that he is set to play a weakened side at Anfield to give some of his more important players a much-needed rest. A busy festive period ends with the two teams meeting once again in a potentially-explosive FA Cup third round tie on 6 January. Gunners boss Arsene Wenger sees rotating his squad as the only way to get through the busy Christmas and new year period. Arsenal keeper Manuel Almunia is set to captain the side at Anfield.
