‘Pool manager Rafael Benitez has revealed the club will decide whether the midfielder is fit enough after training on Monday.
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has only missed the club's last two fixtures, but his absence has been sorely felt during that short period.
The Reds struggled to overcome a struggling Portsmouth side at Fratton Park on February 7, although they did eventually pick up three points with a 3-2 win.
However, the Merseyside-based outfit lost further ground on Premier League table toppers Manchester United yesterday as they were held to a disappointing 1-1 draw at home to Manchester City.
Next up for Liverpool is Real Madrid at the Bernabeu on Wednesday evening in the Champions League and Reds manager Rafael Benitez has revealed Gerrard may be fit enough to play.
"Gerrard may be fit for Wednesday," the Spaniard told Liverpool's official website.
"He has to train on Monday and then we will let the doctor decide. It's not an easy decision but he's very close and hopefully he'll be okay."
