Sion will have the visit of Liverpool to their stadium in the last game of the group stage in this 2015-2016 Europa League season. The two teams lead group B with The Reds in first place and the Swiss side as the runner-up so far. While Liverpool has already secured a spot in the next round, Sion only needs a draw to join them.
Sion's Preview
It is the first time that Sion enters the group stage of a UEFA competition and they don't want to end their experience now. The team that Brendan Rodgers faced in his last game as the manager for Liverpool knows that they need a similar effort to what they did in the second day of Europa League action to keep the dream alive.
They will have to do it without their defender Birama Ndoye, who is suspended for this game. He had played in all five games up until this point but with a double-yellow against Rubin in less than 40 minutes, he will be out for the sixth match. Sion has no injured players going into this game.
The offensive and defensive efforts by this team have been pretty even so far. They have scored five goals and received the same amount in the five games they have already played. They have kept one clean sheet and held scoreless in one game. So far, the team has two wins, two draws and one loss for eight points.
Liverpool's Preview
Liverpool wants to keep the top spot in Group B and that means that the easiest way to do it is with a win. Even a draw would be enough for them to lead the group into the next round. For Jurgen Klopp, this is his fourth game in charge of the Reds in the Europa League and he is undefeated in it (1W, 2D).
Liverpool is still one of the few undefated teams in the competition. Nine points after five games has been enough for them to be the leaders. They started off with three draws and won their two latest games in the competition. They have not lost a game since November 8, when Crystal Palace defeated them 1-2.
Coutinho, Gomez, Ings and Sakho are out due to injuries. There is a chance that with those absences and the ticket to the next stage already in Liverpool's hands, Klopp can give youngsters a chance to play. Jordan Rossiter is one of them, Connor Randall is another one and Divock Origi could also see some action in this game.
