THE PREDICTION
With Liverpool having won all three of their Group B games so far, Jurgen Klopp knows that if his side pick up another three points here then he can afford to rest some of his key men for the last two matches. That is easier said than done against Atletico Madrid of course, and the Premier League side were made to work hard for their victory in the reverse fixture a fortnight ago. Another fiercely-contested affair is expected here and a clear winner is not obvious between these two strong sides. The slight edge has to go to the hosts though – especially with the Anfield crowd playing their part – so consider Liverpool or draw in the double chance market.
