Liverpool welcome Ajax to Anfield in the Champions League group stage tonight as Jurgen Klopp’s hosts look to secure their spot in the knockout stages of the competition.

The Reds lead Group D with nine points from four games, having surprisingly suffered a 2-0 defeat at home to Atalanta last time out in the tournament. Ajax are second in the group on seven points and lost 1-0 to Liverpool in October in the reverse fixture of this evening’s meeting.

A win or draw here would guarantee Klopp’s players a place in the last 16, the round in which they were eliminated by Atletico Madrid last season – a year after they lifted the trophy. Follow live updates from the Champions League game below.
