Jurgen Klopp returns to Germany for the first
time as Liverpool coach on Thursday hunting a
Europa League win at Augsburg in his quest to
quench the Reds' thirst for silverware.
Klopp returns to the sidelines at a Bundesliga ground
for the first time since the 48-year-old quit Borussia
Dortmund last season, then replaced Brendan Rogers
as Liverpool coach in October.
Fans have clamoured for tickets for the round of 32,
first-leg clash at the WWK Arena in deepest Bavaria
to see Liverpool, who are unbeaten in their six
European games under Klopp and buoyed by
Sunday's thrashing of Aston Villa.
Augsburg received 5,000 applications for just 2,000
away tickets for the Liverpool game, which will be a
26,160 sell-out, with the return leg at Anfield on
February 25, just three days before the Reds play
Manchester City in the League Cup final.
