Fixture: Liverpool vs Bordeaux
Competition: Europa League
Kick-off: 20:05 (UK time)

Liverpool have officially confirmed their starting line-up for this evening's Europa League fixture against French outfit Bordeaux at Anfield.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp chooses to go with Christian Benteke to spearhead his side's attack tonight, with the Belgian being supported by the in-form Brazilian midfielder Roberto Firmino. Simon Mignolet lines up in goal, with Dejan Lovren and Kolo Toure forming the central defensive pairing ahead of him.




Jordon Ibe is in the team, along with Joe Allen, while experienced defender Martin Skrtel is on the bench if required by Klopp. Divock Origi, Adam Lallana and Emre Can are further substitutes tonight. Philippe Coutinho is not involved.

Liverpool, who drew their earlier fixture against Bordeaux in France, know a win against the Ligue 1 side would book a last 32 spot in the Europa League.
