Liverpool are looking to qualify for the knockout stages of the Uefa Champions League when Atletico Madrid travel to Anfield for matchday four in Group B.
The Reds lead the group by five points ahead of their Spanish opponents in second and FC Porto in third, meaning a win here would render the margin impossible for both Atlético and bottom side AC Milan to make up.
Goal from Mohamed Salah and Naby Keita gave Jürgen Klopp’s an early lead in the reverse fixture two weeks ago, before Antoine Griezmann levelled the score with two of his own. The Frenchman was then sent off before a later penalty from Mohamed Salah secured the win for the away side.
Here’s everything you need to know about Wednesday’s match:

The match will kick-off at 7.45pm in the UK, with the fixture taking place at the Anfield.

The home side’s strong performances in this competition so far this season stand them in good stead, but the lack options in midfield and off the bench could hamper them. 1-1 draw.
