Champions LeagueLiverpoolPorto

Liverpool welcomes Porto in a match of the group stage of the Champions League. Merseyside have already secured first place in Group B, winning all four games so far. With a seven-point lead over second-placed Porto two rounds before the end of the group stage, Liverpool cannot be moved from the first position.

However, Porto could lose the second, as Atletico Madrid is only a point behind him, and Milan is four behind. Depending on the development in the next two games, a scenario is possible in which the Dragons may remain even in the last fourth position. In any case, Wednesday's victory for Porto will only suffice if Atletico Madrid lose as hosts against AC Milan.

Everyone expects that Jurgen Klopp will give a break to some of his main players for the upcoming match. In the coming weeks, the program in the Premier League becomes very busy and the fact that Liverpool already secures an easy draw for the round of 16 in the Champions League is a huge advantage. In any case, Klopp often rotates his squad and it can be said that only against Atletico Madrid, Liverpool came out with the best they have.

I am not convinced that Porto is able to leave with three points from Anfield, regardless of the composition of the hosts. So far, the only success of the Dragons was achieved at the Estadio de Dragao with a minimum of 1: 0 against Milan. In their two away games, Porto pulled just a point away from Milan and Atletico Madrid. As a host, Liverpool had their hesitations and conceded two goals each against Milan, Brighton and Manchester City, but there is still no loss in all tournaments. The Merseyside matches are full of goals and the trend is very likely to continue.
