Liverpool played against Leicester on February 10 and faced Burnley three days later. And on February 16, the Reds will play against Inter. I admit that they may have problems with playing conditions. In any case, judging by the coefficients, no one expects an unconditional victory from the visitors. In the group stage, Liverpool proved to be a very strong team. The Reds earned 18 points in six matches, gaining six confident victories. It is noteworthy that they scored at least two goals against their opponents in each of those games. Mohammed Salah showed himself better than the rest, delivering seven accurate shots. In the last eight away games, Liverpool has consistently scored at least one goal. In addition, the team gained six victories and one draw and suffered only one defeat.
Inter and Liverpool have crossed paths in the Champions League four times. The Reds gained three victories, and the Black and Blues won only one game. 14 of Inter's last 16 home games in the Champions League ended with Under 3.5 goals scored. Of course, it will be one of the most interesting confrontations in the 1/8 finals of the Champions League. Inter will certainly try not to lose at home. As usual, the Snakes will rely on counterattacking football. And Liverpool will use high pressure and fast flanks in the face of Trent and Robertson. But I think that the team will not determine the winner in the upcoming game. Still, they will be against the backdrop of difficult matches in their championships.
