The French striker was forced to sit out Blues last game against Arsenal because of the knee injury he picked up against Wolves earlier this month but manager Steve Bruce has confirmed that he will be fit for selection for the Liverpool clash.

"Even when he's not at his best, he is better than most," the Blues boss told the club's official website.

"He set such high standards last season with his performances against the likes of Middlesbrough, Southampton and Charlton.

"I know that with Christophe and Mikael up front I've got a threat, both physically and a goalscorer in Forssell.

"The longer they play together, the better they will become."
