Kuyt relishing return

The Reds have already qualified for the knockout stages and boss Hodgson has hinted he will make changes for the Anfield match, meaning Kuyt could miss out on a reunion with the club he represented from 1998 to 2003.

The 30-year-old told Liverpool`s website: "I have missed a few games through injury this season and I hope I can feature against my former club.

"We play a lot of games in a season and obviously you can't play in every game but it would be nice to play against Utrecht at Anfield.

"We have done really well in the Europa League and it would be nice to finish the group stages with a good performance at home.

"I had some good times at Utrecht and a lot of people are still there at the club who I am good friends with."
