[Liverpool](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2021/03/06/loris-karius-linked-with-surprise-move-to-bayern-munich/) will be hoping a change of competition and home scenary will mean a change of fortunes as the [Reds face RB Leipzig](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/match/2020-21/first-team/fixtures-and-results) on Wednesday night.
