Liverpool players started their performance in the tournament in Group B, where they scored 18 points and took 1st place. The Reds outranked Atlético Madrid (3-2 and 2-0), Porto (5-1 and 2-0), and AC Milan (3-2 and 2-1). At the end of February, Liverpool won the first trophy in the current season, beating Chelsea in the English League Cup final. The Reds won this tournament for the first time in ten years. However, Klopp's ambitious guys are ready to replenish the club's collection of awards. Liverpool made it to the playoffs of the Champions League and reached the FA Cup 1/4 finals, where it will face the winner of the pair Nottingham Forest - Huddersfield Town. Beyond that, the Reds remain the only pursuers of Manchester City in the Premier League. They are six points behind the Citizens, having a match in hand.

Inter started the fight for the Champions League Cup in Group D. Simone Inzaghi’s team advanced to the playoffs from 2nd place, scoring ten points in confrontations against Real Madrid (0-1 and 0-2), Sheriff Tiraspol (3-1 and 3-1) and Shakhtar Donetsk (0-0 and 2-0). The Black and Blues also have a busy schedule due to participation in several tournaments. The current champions of Italy play in the Champions League and participate in the race for the title in Serie A. Beyond that, they reached the semifinals of the Coppa Italia, and the first leg against AC Milan ended without a winner (0-0). On March 4, the Nerazzurri ended their 4-match winless streak in the championship, destroying the weakest team, Salernitana (5-0). Lautaro Martinez scored a hat-trick, and Edin Dzeko scored a brace.
The first leg of the 1/8 finals took place in Milan on February 16. Despite the hosts’ advantage in some parts of the game, the guests from Liverpool gained a confident 2-0 victory. Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah scored a goal each at the end of the second half. The result of the match in Italy leaves Inter no other alternative than an open game at Anfield. The Black and Blues need to win with a two-goal difference to bring the match into extra time, and a major victory will guarantee them a place in the quarterfinals. The hosts, who have obtained a comfortable advantage of two goals, will be satisfied with a victory, a draw, or even a defeat with a minimum score. But there is almost no doubt that the Reds will score at home. In the current season, only Arsenal managed to keep a clean sheet at Anfield in the League Cup match (0-0). And we are not sure that Internazionale will be able to score in England. Most likely, the experienced defense of the Reds will again neutralize Dzeko and Martinez.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score — no
