Following their fifth-placed Premier League result last season, Liverpool joins Europe's secondary competition. LASK Linz, on the other hand, advanced by beating Zrinjski Mostar 3-2 in the qualifiers.

Preview

Red Bull Salzburg continues to lead Austrian football, positioning Sturm Graz and LASK in a competitive race for second place. The latter narrowly missed out. LASK, after securing third place, entered the Europa League preliminary rounds, defeating Zrinjski Mostar 3-2 and making their third appearance in the group stages.

Sturm Graz, making headway in European competitions, had a short-lived Europa League stint in 2019-20 and the Europa Conference League in 2021-22. However, with their current momentum, they may pose a challenge in Group E, especially given LASK's recent unbeaten seven-game stretch.

LASK displayed impressive form recently, marking their third consecutive league win against Austria Klagenfurt and maintaining a winning record at the Raiffeisen Arena.

The challenge will be heightened as Liverpool, previously consistent Champions League contenders, step onto the pitch. Their streak ended last season, placing them in the Europa League, a competition they're no strangers to, having been finalists in 2016. Recent form suggests Liverpool is one of the favorites to claim the trophy this year.

The Reds maintained their form over the weekend, defeating Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-1, placing them third in the Premier League. Their current 16-match unbeaten run in all competitions showcases their ambition to return to the Champions League.

This match will be the first competitive encounter between LASK and Liverpool. In past matchups with English clubs, LASK managed to secure a 3-3 draw against Tottenham Hotspur in the 2020-21 season.

LASK faces injury challenges, missing key players like Tobias Anselm, Yannis Letard, and Adil Taoui due to ACL injuries. Lenny Pintor and high-performing winger Keito Nakamura are also out. Their notable summer acquisition, Ebrima Darboe, isn't expected to start, given his limited game time.

Liverpool welcomes back captain Virgil van Dijk after a two-game ban. However, Trent Alexander-Arnold is still recovering, making his participation doubtful. Joe Gomez might step in for Alexander-Arnold, and with Thiago Alcantara also sidelined, changes are anticipated.
