Klopp: European nights are different now - but our responsibility is the same

Jürgen Klopp knows Liverpool's first European night at Anfield of the season will not be the same – but insists his team's approach absolutely must be.

The Reds host FC Midtjylland in Champions League Group D this evening, aiming to build on their 1-0 win away at AFC Ajax last week.

As the world continues to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tie will be played behind closed doors, meaning the loss of the atmosphere that has so richly enhanced the club’s forays into continental competition.

Klopp and his players will feel that absence, but the boss has underlined the responsibility and duty Liverpool have to overcome it on behalf of the supporters.
