Liverpool travel to the San Siro for the first of eight group games in a revamped format that will see them play seven teams just once with four away and four home games. The top eight will then get a bye to the round of 16 with a further playoff round for the next 16 teams in the league table.
Arne Slot will lead Liverpool for his first Champions League game and will be hoping for a return to winning ways after a shock defeat to Nottingham Forest on Saturday. He had previously won all three of his games in charge including a 3-0 thrashing of Manchester United at Old Trafford.
