Fabinho: Liverpool will relish being the team to beat ahead of Champions League group stage draw

Liverpool midfielder Fabinho is looking forward to being the team everyone wants to beat in Europe this season as clubs await Thursday’s draw for the Champions League group stage.

The reigning champions will enter the draw in Pot 1 alongside the likes of Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Juventus, while Liverpool’s opponents in the last two finals, Real Madrid and Tottenham, are in Pot 2.

Jurgen Klopp’s side have started the season in excellent form, the only Premier League side to register three wins from three games, and Fabinho thinks the added pressure of juggling domestic commitments with Europe will provide a welcome challenge.
