Mark Lawrenson, Former Liverpool defender on BBC Radio 5 live: I wouldn't start Alberto Moreno. Never. He makes so many mistakes. He almost cost them against Villarreal in the Europa League last season. I find it strange. He would make a good wing-back, but defensively? No. They are making it very easy for the opposition to score. |

Mark Lawrenson, Former Liverpool defender on BBC Radio 5 live: I think with Philippe Coutinho, this is his one and only chance to go to Barcelona. They will look elsewhere. He is not at the level of Luis Suarez or a Lionel Messi. If he turns round and says 'OK, I'm not going to play' what do you do? They have sold players in recent years. The model has been to buy young, make better and sell. Is that not what they have done with Coutinho? |

Hoffenheim 0-0 Liverpool --As Hoffenheim boss Julian Nagelsmann said earlier, he doesn't like his side to make risky tackles but rather pressure their opponents into mistakes. Expect Liverpool players not to have much time on the ball. |

Chris Waddle, Ex-Spurs and England winger on 5 live Sport: It will be interesting. Alberto Moreno gets criticised for his defensive qualities but he is spare tonight as the Hoffenheim wing-backs play quite deep. |

Hoffenheim 0-0 Liverpool --Plenty of possession for Liverpool in the early stages as Mohamed Salah, who scored and impressed generally on his debut against Watford at the weekend, sends a low cross in for Roberto Firmino but Hoffenheim clear ahead of the forward. |

Hoffenheim 0-0 Liverpool --Simon Mignolet charges out of his area to clear the ball away from Serge Gnabry but is momentarily in danger as Hoffenheim pick up possession as the Liverpool keeper desperately races back to his unguarded net. Fortunately for the visitors, Hoffenheim are unable to capitalise. |

CLOSE! Hoffenheim 0-0 Liverpool --Ooh, vital, vital interception by Joel Matip! Hoffenheim are using the flanks well as they attack down the right through ex-Leicester man Andrej Kramaric. His cross is a great one and looks certain to reach Serge Gnabry in the middle of the box, but Matip sticks out a boot to clear. Great start by the hosts, they look well up for this one. |

Hoffenheim 0-0 Liverpool --Great defending is followed by suspect defending as Dejan Lovren struggles to clear a free-kick, the ball bouncing off his boot, body and face before Simon Mignolet bails out his team-mate. |
