The Reds will be overwhelming favourites when they meet a team currently languishing towards the lower-reaches of their national league but Besirevic is confident in the ability of his struggling side.

Besirevic said: "We will play as much as Liverpool allow us. We know Liverpool are a much better team, and a great opponent, but I believe in us.

"If we are lucky, if we play well then why can't we beat them. But one thing is for sure, we won't be under any pressure.

"We will not play defensive soccer because we don't know how to play like that."
