Defender Virgil van Dijk says that Liverpool must be "at 100%" to get the better of Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League.

Defender Virgil van Dijk has suggested that there will be no complacency when Liverpool host Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

Liverpool have put together a nine-game unbeaten streak in the Premier League and have already defeated Paris Saint-Germain - a team who beat Red Star by a 6-1 scoreline earlier this month - at Anfield.

However, Van Dijk has said that he expects the Serbian side to provide a tough test when the teams go head to head on Merseyside.

The Dutchman told the club's official website: "They are in the Champions League - the best competition in Europe apart from the Premier League - and it will be a hard game. We will need to be 100% and I think we will be.

"Against Huddersfield, we should have done even better. Obviously we kept a clean sheet, which is all good, but we could have made it easier for ourselves.

"We need to win every game. There is basically no other mindset. It's another Champions League night at Anfield and I'm sure we will recover from Huddersfield and make sure we are ready."

Liverpool have claimed three points from their opening two group games and currently sit one point adrift of leaders Napoli.
