Liverpool's lack of cutting edge has been an issue at times this season as they adapt to Andoni Iraola's preferred style of play.

Iraola is expecting a deafening atmosphere at the Sukru Saracoglu stadium in Istanbul, but the Liverpool boss is confident his side can cope with the unwelcoming environment.

The Spaniard believes Liverpool must cut off the connection between Fenerbahce's players and their passionate fans by taking the sting out of the game.

"Tomorrow, it's not going to be easy. It's always difficult to come to Turkey and play and we have to be very ready," Iraola said on Tuesday.
