Leeds United boss Simon Grayson says he will understand if Liverpool field a weakened team when the sides meet in the Carling Cup tie on Tuesday.

"Liverpool will put out a team that they feel comfortable can win the match," Grayson told BBC Radio Leeds.

"Hopefully we can cause an upset. We're playing with a great deal of confidence," he said.

"You can't underestimate what Liverpool are all about - they're a fantastic club with world class players."

And he added: "It's a massive challenge for us but one that we're relishing."
