Liverpool jet off for Champions League clash in Slovenia

  • Liverpool face Slovenian side Maribor in the Champions League on Tuesday 
  • The Reds have drawn both their games to date in Group E and sit in second spot 
  • Jurgen Klopp will be eager to see his side return to winning ways after two draws

Liverpool have jetted out to Slovenia ahead of their trip to face Maribor in the Champions League.

Jurgen Klopp’s side stretched their unbeaten run to four Premier League games on Saturday but it was another story of frustration for them as they missed the better chances in a 0-0 draw with Manchester United.

It was a second successive league stalemate for the Reds following their 1-1 draw with Newcastle United before the international break.

It has been a similar tale in Europe, with Liverpool drawing their opening two fixtures in Champions League Group E, squandering a lead at home to Sevilla in their opener, before being frustrated in Moscow by Spartak last time out. 

They now go in search of a much-needed victory to reignite their bid to top their table and reach the last 16 as they prepare to face Slovenian minnows Maribor at the Stadion Ljudski Vrt.

Klopp and his team arrived at Liverpool John Lennon airport early on Monday morning ready for the flight, with Philippe Coutinho, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Alberto Moreno all present.
