Liverpool defender Danniel Agger will miss the match against St Gallen in Switzerland tonight after picking up a back injury.
Agger will also miss Sunday's clash with Rapid Vienna due to the injury which he originally picked up back in February whilst on international duty with Denmark.
The 24-year-old is back at the club having treatment on the injury but it remains to be seen whether or not he will be fit enough for the long haul trip to the far east.
Agger's absence has handed an opportunity for young Spanish defender Danny Ayala to show what he can do as the club begin their pre-season efforts.
