Team news
The SkyBet Championship team will be trying to pull a shocking win in front of a sellout crowd of 6,900 fans at Pirelli Stadium. The Brewers may not have many top-caliber players, but surely a good strategy by Nigel Cough's men coul earn them one of the biggest wins in team history.
How are they going to face the heavily-favoured Reds? Nigel Cough explains.

On the other side of the pitch, Liverpool will try to repeat last year's performance in this competition, but they won't take their match against a lower-tier side lightly. Coach Jürgen Klopp revealed in his pre-match presser that he will be starting a competitive team on Tuesday evening.
