Liverpool may be the only team with a 100% record in the league phase, but they also have a serious case of Real Madrid-itis. Not only have the Reds failed to win any of their past eight meetings with Los Blancos, they've lost seven of them — including two Champions League finals. Arresting the slide would be huge for new manager Arne Slot, especially with a crucial Premier League clash with Man City up next.
Real Madrid would no doubt argue otherwise, but despite the ugly contract dispute Mohamed Salah might just be the best player in the world right now, and he's been just as deadly in a playmaking role as a goalscoring one. That said, Liverpool will be glad to not have to face Vinicius Junior, who's terrorized them over the years. The Brazilian's absence, however, will allow Kylian Mbappé to play in his preferred position out on the left.
Tune in today, and make sure you don’t miss any of the UCL action with our how to watch Champions League live streams guide.
