Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has revealed that he will dedicate victory to injured Lucas Leiva if the Reds pick up all three points against Fulham tonight.

The 24-year-old Brazilian was ruled out for six months last week following a knee injury suffered during Liverpool's 2-0 win over Chelsea in the Carling Cup quarter-final.

Suarez tweeted: "Concentrated for tonight's game! Hope We win and dedicate victory to Lucas!! YNWA."

Lucas recently spoke about his long-term injury, insisting that he will "come back stronger" next season.
