Jürgen Klopp on Leipzig clash, CL momentum and Fabinho's role

Jürgen Klopp wants Liverpool to capitalise on the momentum they have built in the Champions League this season when they face RB Leipzig on Wednesday night.

The Reds tackle the Bundesliga side in the second leg of a last-16 tie they lead 2-0 after goals from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane in Hungary last month.

They will once again meet at Budapest’s Puskas Arena, and Klopp previewed the game at a press conference before making the journey from Merseyside.

The manager assessed the challenge posed by Leipzig, confirmed he will not be a candidate to take charge of the German national team this summer, and discussed Fabinho’s potential role tomorrow evening.
