Our 23 man squad for the trip to Prague has been named, but Steven Gerrard and Daniel Agger are absent through injuries.
Neither has recovered from the injuries that kept them out of Saturday's draw with Wigan and will not be risked by Dalglish.
Christian Poulsen also misses the clash after his wife went into labour.
Joe Cole is set for a return after tweaking his knee and Meireles has recovered from the bug that saw him withdrawn early in the second-half against Wigan.
Dalglish said: "There's no point being irresponsible with any of the players at this moment. If it causes them a bit of a problem we are as well nursing them through."
When quizzed on Andy Carroll he said: "He won't be considered for the game but will travel just to get in and amongst the lads. It'll help him to feel a part of it."
There are also places on the plane for youngsters Conor Coady, John Flanagan, Jack Robinson, Raheem Sterling, and Tom Ince, although it is unknown if any will play a part in the game.
The boss added: "The lads were all going. Most of them were going anyway. There's nothing any of the boys did on Monday night (Liverpool Youth 9-0 Southend United Youth) that surprised us."
The full squad is as follows:
Reina, Jones, Gulacsi, Johnson, Flanagan, Aurelio, Robinson, Kyrgiakos, Wilson, Carragher, Kelly, Skrtel, Meireles, Cole, Maxi, Jovanovic, Lucas, Coady, Ince, Sterling, Pacheco, Kuyt, Ngog.
