Champions LeagueLiverpoolInter

The first two quarterfinalists of the Champions League will become clear today. One of them seems almost certain, but the abolition of the rule for a goal on foreign soil remains a bit hopeful in the eyes of Inter fans. Their favorite club will travel to Anfield, where they have to make up for two goals from the first meeting in Milan.

In the middle of last month, the two teams played a relatively equal match, in which they exchanged periods of dominance. However, Liverpool demonstrated that they are the more experienced team in the last editions of the Champions League and deservedly won. Klopp's players waited for the right moment and won 2-0 after goals from Firmino and Salah in the last quarter of an hour of the match.

Liverpool is in great shape and today the surprise of the rematch is not expected. On Saturday, the "Merseysiders" beat West Ham with a minimum of 1: 0. Before that, they continued to the quarterfinals of the FA Cup, and in the final of the League Cup they beat Chelsea after a zero draw and 22 penalties. Thus, Liverpool has twelve consecutive victories in all tournaments and retains real chances for three more trophies this season.

For two months now, Inter have not felt very convincing, and this may be due to the distribution of forces between Serie A, the Italian Cup and the Champions League. On Friday, the Nerazzurri defeated Salernitana 5-0 at home, the first of their goals in four games. During this period, a surprise defeat by Sassuolo was allowed, as well as a zero draw with Genoa.

Liverpool are unbeaten at Anfield this season and currently have seven consecutive victories, so I do not expect anything today but new success in the club's assets. In weak form arrives in England Inter, which has no success as a guest in the new year. In the autumn in the Champions League, the Nerazzurri did not score during their visits to Shakhtar Donetsk and Real Madrid, but did so only with a 3: 1 victory over debutant Sheriff Tiraspol. Jurgen Klopp knows very well how to get the most out of this match. I expect the hosts to suppress their guest's goal attempts and in turn to achieve success.
