Liverpool's turbulent season of injuries continues as Sami Hyypia will miss Tuesday's Carling Cup semi-final at Watford after suffering a hip injury.
The Finnish international limped out of Saturday's 2-0 defeat at Southampton but is hoping to be back for the match at Charlton on Tuesday, 1st February.

Hyypia becomes the 11th Liverpool player to be out injured this season and it causes a major selection poser for Rafael Benitez.

It is expected Djimi Traore will come in to partner Mauricio Pellegrino at centre half at Watford with Jamie Carragher continuing at right back.

Liverpool's Head of Press Ian Cotton said: "Sami had a scan at Melwood on Sunday morning which revealed he has a hip injury. He should be back for the game at Charlton."
