 The Reds travel to Naples to take on Carlo Ancelotti's side with Jurgen Klopp in a bullish mood after seeing his side rescue a point late on at Chelsea to maintain their unbeaten start in the Premier League

 After beating Paris Saint-Germain, safely negotiating an away trip to the intimidating San Paolo will all but secure their passage to the next round if, as expected, they beat Red Star in back-to-back games after this one

 Klopp will be hungry to earn a shot at redemption after being cruelly denied in the final last season with Mohamed Salah limping off injured

 The focus appears to be there already though, having rattled and outplayed PSG at Anfield

 If they can cope and even thrive in one of the toughest grounds in European football tonight, they will begin to be talked about as favourites for the tournament

 In the aftermath of the clash with Valencia, the United manager said: "I'm pleased with the effort, I am pleased with the commitment, I am pleased with the improvement

 "And I'm not pleased, of course, with the result, which is not a good result but is not a bad result

" Meanwhile, Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has hit out at Mourinho, labelling the Old Trafford boss an "embarrassment"

 The former midfielder is surprised the Portuguese coach is still in a job following Saturday's defeat at West Ham

 "I am sat here actually surprised he survived after Saturday, the performance was that bad," Scholes told BT Sport

 "He's coming out in press conferences and constantly having a go at players, he is having a go at people above him because he's not getting what he wants

 "I think his mouth is probably out of control and I think he is embarrassing the club
