Liverpool vs RB Leipzig team news ahead of the Champions League fixture.

Liverpool turn their attention to the Champions League when they make the trip to RB Leipzig on Wednesday (20.00 BST).

The Reds will head to Germany against the backdrop of their toughest test of the season to date. Arne Slot's side came through it, though, as they battled to a 2-1 win over Chelsea at Anfield. That restored Liverpool's place at the summit of the Premier League, although Slot is not getting carried away.

The Reds aim to continue their unblemished record in the Champions League so far. After wins over AC Milan and Bologna, a third successive triumph will see Liverpool take another step towards finishing in the top eight of the new league format and automatically qualifying for the knockout stage.

Yet Slot's troops face a Leipzig side who are joint-top of the Bundesliga after edging a 1-0 win over Mainz last weekend. The Saxony outfit are also desperate to get a win in Europe, having already suffered defeats by Atletico Madrid and Juventus.

Ahead of the fixture at the Red Bull Arena, here's a look at the early team news for both sides.
