Red Bull Salzburg vs Genk
Champions League 2019/20 season
Venue: Red Bull Arena Salzburg, Austria
Date: Tuesday 17th September, 2019
Kick-off time: 8pm BST
Red Bull Salzburg and Genk open their Champions League group accounts in Austria on Tuesday night in what could already prove to be a pivotal Group E affair.
With Champions League holders Liverpool heavy favourites to win the group, every point will be precious with both Salzburg and Genk likely battling Napoli for second spot.
Should Liverpool dominate the group as expected, that means games such as these are already vital - so expect plenty of drama.
