The England international has been out of action since sustaining an ankle problem at the end of October.
Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish told his pre-Blackburn press conference: “He is training, so as we’ve said before we’ll always monitor his progress and make sure we’ve done the right things.
“Everything he’s done, he’s done very well. He’s been training, but whether that means he’s ready or not, we’ll have to wait and see.”
