Ben Nabouhane forces a fine stop out of Alisson with a 25-yard drive after van Dijk had initially blocked an earlier effort.

19'

Another half chance falls for Sturridge, but his effort on the turn deflects into the side netting.

17'

WHAT A MISS! Sturridge somehow blazes over from six yards out after Robertson had touched Mane's cross into his path.

15'

Vujadin Savic spins in the box but fires off target from 10 yards after Liverpool had failed to deal with a right-wing cross.

14'

Plenty of pressure in and around that Liverpool box. Klopp looks concerned on the touchline.

13'

Marin teases a delightful ball in-behind, but Robertson does well to race across on the cover. The hosts win the corner but can't make anything of it.

No doubt that this is a much tougher test for Klopp and Co than the game at Anfield.

12'

RED STAR v ENGLSH SIDES: The Serbian side won five and drew two of their first seven matches at home to English sides. However, they have lost the last two v Bolton and Arsenal. Will Liverpool make it three tonight?

11'

Alexander Arnold skies a volley on the stretch after Sturridge had miscued a header backwards from Salah's left-wing cross.

10'

Marin jinks in from the left past Alexander-Arnold but can't get enough purchase on his strike to trouble Alisson in the Liverpool goal.

Mane spins free into the left channel onto Robertson's probing pass. The Senegal forward fires a cross back to the edge of the area, but Milner can only flash a difficult volley over the bar.

STAT: Liverpool have been beaten in just one of their last 11 CL group games. They have won five of those, scoring an impressive 33 goals along the way. Of course, that's no surprise given the firepower Klopp has at his disposal. The Merseysiders have notched 48 times in the CL since the start of last season, more than any other side in that time.

Marko Marin booked for persisting with his protests after a late challenge on Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Red Star testing the Liverpool rearguard by pouring forward and quickly looking to load balls into the box. The Merseysiders have dealt with it well so far.

HEAD-TO-HEAD: Liverpool may have won the most recent clash by a 4-0 scoreline, but Red Star have the edge overall having triumphed in two of their three meetings so far.

Stojkovic hurls a huge throw into the Liverpool area from the right that causes early alarm bells to ring for the visitors. It's just about dealt with and from the resulting corner Nenad Krsticic stabs an awkward 20-yard effort well wide.

FIFTY FOUR YEARS - FROM ICELAND TO SERBIA: Liverpool's love affair with the European Cup began way back in 1964 when they ran out 5-0 winners at Icelandic side, Reykjavik in a one-sided Preliminary round encounter. That was the first European trip for the mighty Reds - and this will be their 95th as an away team.

A few weeks back, Liverpool roared to a 4-0 win over Red Star at Anfield. Mohamed Salah stole the headlines as his double saw him become the fastest ever Liverpool player to net 50 goals for the club.

No wonder they've made a statue of him in his homeland...
