Fixture: Besiktas vs Liverpool
Competition: Europa League
Kick-off: 18:00 (UK time)

Liverpool have announced their starting eleven and substitutes to play Besiktas in Istanbul at the Ataturk Stadium this evening in the second leg of their round of 32 Europa League tie.

The Reds hold a 1-0 lead from the first leg and boss Brendan Rodgers has gone with Daniel Sturridge to partner Mario Balotelli in Turkey, with Raheem Sterling also included in what looks an attacking side, the Liverpool manager aiming to score an away goal to put the tie beyond any doubt. At the back, Rodgers goes with Kolo Toure, Martin Skrtel and Dejan Lovren.




Emre Can looks to have been shifted into midfield, while Jordon Ibe keeps his place in the team. On the bench Liverpool can turn to Adam Lallana, Rickie Lambert and Fabio Borini if they need to increase their attacking options over the course of the game.
