Liverpool face the Lithuanian side in the Champions League second round qualifier first leg this tuesday with the second leg at Anfield a week later. Despite Liverpool being clear favourites Finnan says the Reds won't treat Kaunas lightly.

He said: "Personally, I don't know anything about Kaunas to be honest but the scouts here have done their homework and briefed us fully on what to expect. We aren't expecting an easy game and with the first leg being away from home it's going to be difficult.
 
"They scored eight goals over two legs in the first qualifying round so their strikers certainly know where the back of the net is. We'll definitely have to be on our guard to quell the attacking threat they'll pose but, as always, we'll be approaching the game in a professional manner and having already kept a few clean-sheets this summer we're confident of doing the same again."
