Reigning European champions Liverpool have done well to recover from their Matchday 1 loss to Italian Serie A giants Napoli in Group E of the Champions League.

Liverpool were beaten 2-0 by Napoli in their first match in the Champions League this season only for them to respond with two successive wins.

The Reds defeated Red Bull Salzburg and Genk in the last two matchdays to put themselves in a good position for qualification.

Liverpool thrashed Genk 4-0 in their first meeting on Matchday 3 and they can take a big step towards qualification with another victory over their Belgian opponents.

The Reds warmed up for their Champions League home clash with Genk via a comeback win over Aston Villa in the Premier League at the weekend.

Jurgen Klopp and his players had to come from behind to beat Aston Villa and also maintain their long unbeaten run in the Premier League.

Liverpool left it late to seal a 2-1 victory over Aston Villa courtesy the goals from Andy Robertson and Sadio Mane.

David Trezeguet had given the hosts a first-half lead.

Possible Liverpool XI vs Genk: Alisson Becker; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dejan Lovren, Virgil Van Dijk, Andy Robertson; Fabinho, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, James Milner; Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane.
