JK on 'intense' Spartak test and potential Promes absence
Jürgen Klopp expects Liverpool to face a typically 'intense' and 'difficult' Champions League tie against Spartak Moscow tomorrow evening.
The Reds resume their campaign in Europe's premier cup competition on Tuesday as they take on Massimo Carrera's team in the Russian capital.
And Klopp knows his charges will need to be at their best to overcome the Russian champions on their own turf.
When asked what sort of game he anticipates, the German replied: "Intense, difficult - how Champions League football is.
"[Spartak are] a very strong side, very experienced side, [who were] very successful last year.
"This year they had problems with a few injuries and that is a problem for every team.
