Andoni Iraola takes charge of a Champions League game for the first time in his managerial career, and he does so with the pressure eased.

Two 2-2 draws with Newcastle and Nottingham Forest had left him without a win until Friday, when Liverpool won 2-0 at Ipswich Town with Alexander Isak scoring twice inside the opening nine minutes.

Liverpool have finished in the top three of the league phase in each of the last two seasons and have won their last six league phase meetings with Spanish opposition.

Federico Chiesa and Wataru Endo were both left out of the Champions League squad. Hugo Ekitike, Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni remain injured, with Joe Gomez a doubt.

Bradley Barcola could make a first start since his move from Paris Saint-Germain, having won the competition twice with the French champions.

Atletico arrive with their unbeaten start gone, beaten 3-0 at Athletic Bilbao on Saturday in a second half Diego Simeone called a wake up call.

They have now conceded six second half goals across their last three games, which is not the Atletico of old.

Alexander Sorloth is expected to miss out with a thigh problem and Arnau Ortiz is suspended. Julian Alvarez and Jonathan David are competing to lead the line, with Cristian Romero pushing for a full debut.

Simeone is the longest serving coach in this season’s competition, in charge since December 2011, and Koke can become the 28th player to reach 150 European club appearances.

Atletico have never won a group stage or league phase game against English opposition, drawing four and losing six of ten. This fixture opened last season’s campaign too, Virgil van Dijk settling it 3-2 with a 92nd-minute winner.
