The 22-year-old sustained a knock in the first leg in Poland and was left out of the side that beat St Mirren 1-0 on Premiership duty at the weekend, but stands a chance of being involved tomorrow night.

Speaking ahead of the tie, Gerrard said: "Sheyi Ojo was back out this morning, he seems fine but will be a late decision tomorrow morning.

"Otherwise, we are fine."
