UEFA has announced Liverpool’s Europa League group stage matchups, with the Reds beginning and ending their group away from Anfield.
On September 21, Jurgen Klopp’s team will travel to Linz, Austria, to take on LASK.
The 9,000-seater home stadium of Union will not host that match because it does not adhere to UEFA regulations. The 21,000-seat Lotto Park in Anderlecht has been used by the Belgian team before.
Every Anfield game begins at 8 p.m. local time, while every away game begins at 6.45 p.m. CET (5.45 p.m. UK).

Kickoff timings in the UK.
Prior to Liverpool’s Premier League game against Man United at home, the penultimate matchday, away to Union SG, is played; perhaps, the Reds can secure qualification by then.
Liverpool will play an additional preliminary round in February against a team that placed third in its Champions League group if they place second in their group, which Klopp will be keen to avoid.
March marks the start of the last-16 stage, which concludes on May 22 in Dublin.
