Big summer signing Christian Benteke is likely to start and he will hope to prove his worth to manager Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool bid to reach two Wembley finals in the same campaign.

Both frontmen will be key to getting their team into the fifth-round, where the victors will visit Championship outfit Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park later this month. Here is how Valencia and Benteke match up so far this season…
