Liverpool aim to build on their opening Champions League win over AC Milan as they take on Porto in Group B on Tuesday.
The Merseysiders' opening match saw them defeat Milan in a thrilling game at Anfield where second-half goals from Mohamed Salah and Jordan Henderson helped turnaround a 2-1 half-time deficit.
Porto drew 0-0 at reigning Spanish champions Atletico Madrid in their first match in what has been dubbed this season's 'Group of Death'.
In last weekend's Premier League, Jurgen Klopp's side were involved in another goal fest as they drew 3-3 at newly promoted Brentford .
Salah was among the scorers in London as the Egyptian striker struck his 100th league goal for Liverpool. "It's an incredible moment," Liverpool captain Henderson said afterwards. "He's been incredible ever since he came to the club."
Salah was back on the training pitch on Monday - along with the likes of Virgil van Dijk, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane - ahead of the game in Portugal.
Liverpool midfielder Naby Keita returned to training after missing the Brentford game due to a foot injury, while Wales right-back Neco Williams, who has been out all season with an ankle injury was also back.
Porto were victorious in their Primeira Liga game on Saturday when they won 2-1 at Gil Vicente thanks to Sergio Oliveria's last-gasp goal. Porto sit second in their domestic table, four points behind leaders Benfica.
Liverpool 3 AC Milan 2: player ratings LIVERPOOL PLAYER RATINGS: Alisson Becker - 6. There will be few games when the Brazilian has so little to do and yet concede twice. He could not have stopped either goal. AFP
Trent Alexander-Arnold - 7. The 22-year-old was superb going forward and deserved to be credited with the opening goal. On the downside, both Milan’s strikes came down his flank. Reuters
Joel Matip - 6. Apart from a mad five minutes before the break, the 30-year-old was in control. He should have cut out Milan’s second goal but recovered his composure in the second half. Reuters
Joe Gomez - 5. The 24-year-old was naturally twitchy on his first start since November. His positional sense was awry and that showed for both Milan goals. He will get better. AFP
Andrew Robertson - 8. The Scot was a force of nature, rampaging forward to attack and then throwing in a rugged challenge to dispossess a forward in defence. The left back feeds off Anfield’s energy. Getty Images
Fabinho - 7. The Brazilian was impressive in breaking up danger and moving the ball forward. His lack of pace was exposed in the build-up to Milan’s second goal. Getty Images
Jordan Henderson - 8. The captain was industrious in the midfield and set the tempo in the first half. His good work is often overlooked by a section of supporters but even his biggest critics could not deny the brilliance of his winning goal. Reuters
Naby Keita - 7. The Guinean was quick to press and responsible on the ball. He looked to get forward when the time was right. Replaced by Thiago with 19 minutes left. Getty Images
Mohamed Salah - 7. The Egyptian had an uncharacteristic penalty miss and seemed to be overthinking things afterwards but, when his chance came, he took the equaliser with aplomb. Getty Images
Divock Origi - 7. The Belgian was a surprise starter and failed to convert a difficult early chance. He held the ball up well and provided a lovely pass for Salah to equalise. Limped off after 63 minutes and was replaced by Mane. AFP
Diogo Jota - 6. The Portuguese threatened throughout and played a part in keeping the defence off balance. He made way for Jones after 71 minutes. Getty Images
SUBS: Sadio Mane (63') - 6. The Senegalese replaced Origi and was immediately busy. Much of what he tried did not come off. The goals will begin to flow again soon. AP Photo
Thiago Alcantara (71') - 6. The 30-year-old came on for Keita for the last 19 minutes. He used the ball well and did not allow Milan room to pick their passes in the midfield. PA
Curtis Jones (71') - 7. The 20-year-old took an aggressive approach when he entered the game for Jota. He drove at defenders and curled a shot just wide while relishing his first appearance of the season Getty Images
James Milner (84') - N/A. The 35-year-old got six minutes of action, replacing Henderson. He committed one ugly foul, was booked and used his experience to help close out the game. EPA
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (84') - N/A. Joined the action in the 84th minute when Salah left the game. The Englishman was industrious at both ends of the pitch. Getty Images
AC MILAN PLAYER RATINGS: Mike Maignan - 6. The Frenchman saved Salah’s penalty brilliantly and leapt up to block Jota’s follow-up header. The goalkeeper might have stopped the equaliser if he had been quicker off his line. Getty
Davide Calabria - 5. The Italian did not enjoy Robertson’s raids forward. He produced a great challenge towards the end to stop Jones but had a testing evening. Getty Images
Simon Kjaer - 6. The Dane made a number of important interceptions, particularly when the defence was struggling in the first half. He showed his experience under pressure. AP Photo
Fikayo Tomori - 7. The former Chelsea defender threw his body at everything. He made a superb block from Salah but was unlucky to deflect Alexander-Arnold’s effort into the net. AFP
Theo Hernandez - 6. The French left back tried manfully to neutralise the threat of Alexander-Arnold and Salah. When given the chance to get forward he was able to worry Liverpool. Getty Images
Franck Kessie - 6. The Ivorian seemed lost for most of the first half but played a role in both his team’s goals. He became more involved in the second period. Reuters
Ismael Bennacer - 4. The former Arsenal midfielder was bypassed in the game. He was casual with his arm while making a challenge in the area and gave away a penalty. Replaced by Tonali with 19 minutes left. Getty Images
Alexis Saelemaekers - 4. A disappointing effort by the Belgian. He never managed to impose himself on proceedings. Taken off for Florenzi with 28 minutes left. Getty Images
Brahim Diaz - 6. The Spaniard drifted in and out of the game but when he got on the ball he was a threat. He profited from a determined run to score his team’s second goal. Reuters
Rafael Leao - 6. The Portuguese was caught sleeping and allowed Alexander-Arnold to escape and create the opening goal. He almost scored but his goalward shot was blocked and Diaz put the ball in the net. Replaced by Giroud in the 62nd minute. AP
Ante Rebic - 7. The Croat scored his team’s first and was astute enough to square the ball for the second. He led the line doggedly. Withdrawn in the 83rd minute when Maldini came on. Getty Images
SUBS: Olivier Giroud (62') - 4. The Frenchman joined the game in the 62nd minute for Leao but the team did not play to his strengths. The striker made little impression. AFP
Alessandro Florenzi (62') - 5. The Italian came on for Saelemaekers with 28 minutes left and was as ineffective as the man he replaced. AP
Sandro Tonali (71') - 6. Joined the action with 19 minutes left for Bennacer. The cameo suggested that the Italian might have been a better choice as a starter. PA
Daniel Maldini (83') - N/A. The 19-year-old was given a brief, seven-minute runout when Rebic was substituted. It was not enough time to make an impactGetty Images
