Preview: Young Boys vs. Liverpool

Young Boys vs. Liverpool

Liverpool will be determined to build on their unbeaten run in the Europa League when they take on their first group-stage opponent Young Boys in Bern, Switzerland.

Reds boss Brendan Rodgers is expected to ring the changes for tomorrow night's clash with one eye on Manchester United's visit to Anfield in the Premier League on Sunday.

The likes of Luis Suarez and skipper Steven Gerrard are likely to be rested, which could pave the way for youngster Adam Morgan in attack, while Jonjo Shelvey is likely to assume Gerrard's role in midfield.

Jamie Carragher and Daniel Agger could hold the back four, while summer signing Samid Yesil could be launched into the forward three after Rodgers recently confirmed that the former Bayer Leverkusen youngster will feature in the game.

Meanwhile, Martin Rueda's Swiss side are likely to be full of strength as they attempt to make their mark in the European competition, meaning that frontman Raul Bobadilla should start tomorrow night.
