[/td][td=1,1,357]Robbie Keane believes Liverpool will make home advantage count when they look to book their place in the group stages of the Champions League against Standard Liege this evening. [/td][/tr][tr][td=2,1,487]The third round qualifying tie remains in the balance following a goalless draw between the sides in Belgium a fortnight ago, but even though Keane accepts a tough test lies ahead tonight he is confident the home fans will be celebrating a place in tomorrow's draw come the final whistle.

"We know what a big game this is but then every game is a must win when you are at a club like Liverpool," he said.

"It was difficult when we played Liege away and we certainly weren't at our best that night but we know how important this game is because Liverpool need to be in the Champions League and I'm sure the lads will be right up for the game and looking forward to it.

"It was a tough game away. They played well and made things difficult for us but luckily Pepe Reina saved us when he saved a penalty and now we have to look to make the most of that by taking advantage of the fact that this time it's us who are at home.

"We know the fans will be right behind us because they are always fantastic, particularly on European nights, and hopefully we will give them something to enjoy tonight."

Keane is still looking to open his goalscoring account for the Reds following his summer switch from Spurs - but he insists his front-line partnership with Fernando Torres is improving by the match.

He said: "Fernando and myself managed to link up quite a few times against Middlesbrough on Saturday, so there are definitely a few signs there that the partnership is developing.

"It would obviously have been nicer if one of us would have scored but it doesn't really matter who gets the goals as long as someone does and the results follow, that's the most important thing." [/td][/tr]
