Why kick-off for Liverpool's FA Cup tie with Shrewsbury Town has been delayed

Kick off in Liverpool's FA Cup replay against Shrewsbury Town has been delayed until 8pm.

The match was due to kick off at 7.45pm but has been put back a quarter of an hour because some supporters have been delayed due to a crash on the M62.

A full house of 55,000 is expected at Anfield with 8,000 supporters from Shrewsbury also expected.

Liverpool have named the youngest ever starting line up in the club's history for the second time this season, with 19-year-old Scouser Curtis Jones becoming the club's youngest ever captain.

Having been overlooked for television coverage from British broadcasters, the match is not being televised anywhere in the world because the Football Association is under no obligation to make it available for overseas broadcasters - however you can follow all the action as it happens in from our reporting team at Anfield in our live feed HERE
