Jurgen Klopp insists he has no fear for Liverpool, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe players, and will not advise his players on how to handle them after watching them "500,000 times on YouTube ".
The star duo of Paris Saint-Germain will play in the princes' park on wednesday after recovering from his injuries incurred in international service.
KloppThe team managed to keep them quiet for most of their first game at Anfield – Mbappe scoring an equalizer in the 83rd minute before Roberto Firmino clinched a winner for overtime – and he is confident that they can do the same again.
"It's much more difficult to prepare a match when my players do not know an opponent, which happens from time to time," Klopp said.
"We give them videos but this generation is probably watching 500,000 Mbappe videos on YouTube, Neymar and (Edinson) Cavani and they know their individual strengths more than me.
"But they can only shine with the ball, which means we have to defend them.
"It is difficult to close spaces and if you do not close once, not only with quality but also speed, you have no chance.
"But you have to be brave on your own and that's what we did in the first game, we were so attacked even in our defense, constantly ahead.
"It's something that Paris is not used to because it's so dominant in the league, we have to make sure it's not as dominant as we are.
"I am completely satisfied with our individual quality and I believe in 100% in the group, but it's the same for Thomas Tuchel and his players."
If Liverpool win and Red Star Belgrade do not beat Napoli, Klopp knows it's a big demand to win in the French capital, where the last 20 games of the PSG Champions League have been marked by 15 wins and five zero.
"We do not think about it too much. We are athletes and we want to win games, "he added.
"We know the qualifying rules, but we're here tomorrow night to win a football match with everything we have. We will not go for a specific result, we want to be as good as possible.
"It's difficult to come to Paris and get a result, but I think we should try.
"Two very ambitious teams will face each other in an interesting situation in the group because we brought Belgrade back into the group (with a defeat against Serbia in the last defeat).
"We never moaned about it, we did not think about it negatively, we were looking forward to the match in Paris."
