    Tonight’s match will be special for Diogo Jota, to say the least. The forward spent one season at the Dragao back in 2016/17 and scored nine goals in 38 games while on loan from Atletico. That means the 24-year-old will face two of his former clubs in the group stage.

    Both goalkeepers already warming up on the pitch. We’re getting there!

    Henderson is on the verge of a major milestone for Liverpool! If he plays tonight, it would be his 400th appearance for the club, only the 27th player to achieve that feat.
