Liverpool welcome Xabi Alonso back to Anfield tonight as Bayer Leverkusen prepare for a big European clash.

Arne Slot’s men are one of Europe’s most in-form teams and currently sit top of the Premier League.

Leverkusen are in equally good form having not lost since their 3-2 defeat to RB Leipzig on the opening day of the Bundesliga.

The most notable omission for the Reds is left-back Andy Robertson, who has been dropped to the bench and replaced in Slot’s starting lineup by Greece international Konstantinos Tsimikas.

In addition to Tsimikas, midfielder Curtis Jones makes his first Champions League start of the season.
