Liverpool have the chance to get their Europa League campaign up and running in Austria.
The Reds have dropped points in just one Premier League match so far, remain unbeaten and are just two points behind Manchester City in the table.
Liverpool have not played in the Europa League since 2016, but after a disappointing Premier League campaign last season, they failed to qualify for Europe’s top-tier competition.
Jurgen Klopp may look at it as a chance to give his rebuild and give his new players European experience.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of tonight’s Europa League clash.
