Venue: St James Park Date:
Wednesday, 24 August
Kick-off: 1945 BST
Referee: Tony Bates (Staffordshire)

Liverpool - Liverpool line up with a strong line up and nothing less then a win will be expected from everyone! Luis Suarez is hitting top form netting in both Premier League matches so far against Sunderland and Arsenal. Nothing but a win will be expected. Can Liverpool deliver?! Or will Exeter pull of an upset just like Northampton and Barnsley?

Exeter City - Midfielder Liam Sercombe and striker Richard Logan are Exeter's main injury worries and will be assessed before the home side name their line-up. Forward John O'Flynn remains sidelined, while the Grecians will also have to do without suspended defender Steve Tully. Can they pull of a big upset?! Liverpool have famously gone out of recent cups to Northampton and Barnsley in recent years can we see history repeat itself?

It was not a penalty. But Skrtel should have been more carful. The ref was always going to give them something. That was their first attack in the match.

Let's just hope Agger stays fit. If not then Skrtel is going give me a heart attack.

I was pleased with Downing when he came on, he has raised his game since he arrived at Liverpool, I can't really say the same for Charlie Adam, what about his set pieces? where are they?

Good we got the job done though and there were no alarms.

Keep the faith...
some keepers are that good they can save it with their legs when it's in the middle. Reina is one of the best keepers in the PL but when it comes to penalties he is far behind many keepers. Arsenal keeper saved his team tonight with an excellent pen save.

Kop 101 your right why was Hendo taking corners on the right! I do wonder if Adam is struggling with the extra pressure at Liverpool like he did at Rangers.

The strange thing is Reina had a great record saving penalties when he played in Spain.

True. I just don't know what happend to him. He came to us with him known as good at saving penalties. He did okay in his first season with that pen s/out against Chelsea but since then I think he only made one save out of more than 20.

Hendo crossing is good. He is also quick. He needs some confidence. I think Kenny knows that and he is trying to help him by playing him a head of Kuyt.

Hendo crossing is good.

No it wasn't. He didn't find a black shirt once.

I find that pepe always goes the right way to save penalties, but they always seem to go underneath him
