Arne Slot’s first home European game in charge
Arne Slot will oversee his first Champions League game at Anfield as Liverpool manager this week against Bologna.
The Reds got off to a nightmare start against AC Milan in their European opener earlier this month but came back to record an impressive 3-1 victory at San Siro.
It was an early statement of intent and the Merseyside giants will be strong favourites against a Bologna side inexperienced at this level.
Here’s everything you need to know about the game.
Liverpool vs Bologna is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off time on Wednesday 2 October, 2024.
Anfield in Liverpool will host.
TV channel: The game will be broadcast on TNT Sports 2.
Live stream: Subscribers will be able to watch on the Discovery+ app.

Andy Robertson came off for Liverpool at Wolves this weekend, so will need to be assessed. Diogo Jota was absent from training on Tuesday with a reported foot injury, so is expected to miss the game.
Darwin Nunez missed that game due to illness and Slot will provide an update on the striker at his pre-match press conference later this week.
Harvey Elliott is injured with a fractured foot.
