  • PRVW
    Morale at Anfield is very high as Slot confirmed goalkeeper Alisson Becker was fit to play after around two months out injured. But the biggest news of all has to do with Mo Salah.
  • PRVW
    The head coach admitted that he would be able to use his strongest side after Liverpool's Premier League derby clash with Everton at the weekend was called off because of a dangerous storm. "Now everybody is really fit because we skipped the game on Saturday so there is no reason to rotate," he said during a press conference on Monday.

    Despite the Dutchman's words, Liverpool look in good shape ahead of the match - arguably even better than they have for their other games this season.
  • PRVW
    However, Liverpool boss Slot has been adamant that the Champions League debutants' results do not reflect their quality. "I think it's really special what they've done here, particularly last season but even this season," Slot said yeterday. "That they were competing for the league title with this budget probably (shows) how good of a manager Michel is. Even this season I think they do better than the results might look, especially in the Champions League - I've seen almost every game and apart
  • PRVW
    Delfi Geli' side only count a win to their name this season. They were beaten by PSG on opening day, though it was a narrow 1-0 loss, then lost out in a thrilling 2-3 clash at home to Feyenoord before claiming their first win the tournament against Slovan Bratislava (2-0). Two defeats against PSV (4-0) and Sturm Graz (1-0) followed after that.

  • PRVW
    The Reds have looked unstoppable regardless of their opponent. So far, they have defeated seven-time Champions League winners AC Milan 1-3 at the San Siro, Bologna by 2-0, RB Leipzig in a narrow 0-1 win and lastly, but most importantly, Real Madrid in a 2-0 humbling of the UCL kings.
