Lucas Leiva says the first-leg of Liverpool's Europa League qualifier with Trabzonspor will be crucial.
Lucas is well aware of the boisterous atmosphere Liverpool are likely to face at the Huseyin Avni Aker stadium, but he is hoping a positive first-leg result in front of the Kop will dampen the mood of the Trabzonspor crowd.
He told Liverpoolfc.tv: "It will be another tough game. Hopefully we can do well again, keep going and try to win the Europa League.
"We know they are an important club in Turkey and they have won a lot of trophies. It will be difficult, but we have to make sure we beat them and keep going in the competition.
"We have to make sure we get a good result at home because we know it is always a difficult atmosphere to play in over in Turkey."
