Liverpool's starting XI against AC Milan - back row (l-r) Djimi Traore, Xabi Alonso, Sami Hypia, Jerzy Dudek, Jamie Carragher and Harry Kewell - who was injured and replaced by Vladimir Smicer after 23 minutes.
Mario Vrancic could have doubled the Canaries' lead in the final seconds of the first half but the Bosnian midfielder's right-footed effort from long range was saved by Henderson diving to his left.

Leading 3-0 at half-time in the original fixture at Vicarage Road, their place in round four was essentially booked, before their second-half capitulation allowed Tranmere parity and a replay. When the elements then intervened and the game on 14 January was postponed, it left the Hornets facing a horror run of fixtures at a crucial juncture in their season.

The league leaders look certain to win the A-League title, so the last thing they will want is the season to be made null and void. They are ten points clear at the top and have a couple of games in hand for good measure. 15 of their 19 league games have been won with only two defeats, though both were against Western Sydney Wanderers.
