Chelsea v Liverpool (1-1)
| CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINAL SECOND LEG
Date: Wed 30 April Kick-off: 1945 BST Venue: Stamford Bridge
Coverage: Full commentary on BBC Radio 5 Live, the BBC Sport website (UK only) and BBC Radio Merseyside, full text coverage on BBC Sport website and mobiles, live on Sky Sports
Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard looks set to return for Wednesday's Champions League semi-final, second leg.
The England star, who played in the 1-1 draw at Anfield, missed Saturday's win over Manchester United following the death of his mother Pat from pneumonia.
Liverpool full-back John Arne Riise, who scored an injury-time own goal as a substitute in the first leg, could replace the injured Fabio Aurelio.
The Brazilian defender has been ruled out because of a groin problem.
Alternatively, manager Rafa Benitez could recall Sami Hyypia to centre-back, move Jamie Carragher to the right and switch Alvaro Arbeloa to the left, while Steve Finnan can play in either full-back spot.
Benitez is also set to start with striker Fernando Torres after the Spaniard was rested for Saturday's draw with Birmingham.
Peter Crouch could come in up front in preference to Ryan Babel.

Grant, meanwhile, says Lampard is giving himself every chance of playing in the match: "He is doing everything to be available.
"We always take decisions after the last training session."
And he insists the fact that captain John Terry is a booking away from missing the final in Moscow, should Chelsea get there, won't affect his performance.
"You know him like I know him. He'll play to win, like he always does. He won't play any differently," he said.
