Prediction: Liverpool 3-1 RB Salzburg
Liverpool are a wounded beast following their opening round defeat in Naples and will be keen to put that right in front of their own fans. Playing at home in the Champions League for the first time since their miraculous comeback against Barcelona in the semi earlier this year, Jurgen Klopp is set to call on his strongest team to revive their first European title defence since 2006.
Red Bull Salzburg have goals in them though, and dispatched Genk in their opening game. Haland will be keen to continue his fine record in front of goal after announcing himself to a wider audience in that thumping win over Genk last month.
