Liverpool Football Club will take on Real Madrid in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League round of 16 on Tuesday night. The two European giants will clash at the Anfield, Liverpool, with both teams looking to gain an early advantage in the tie.
Liverpool will be looking to avenge their 2018 Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid, which saw them lose 3-1 and not only this but also last year’s final game which ended with a scoreline of 1-0 to Real Madrid.
Real Madrid, on the other hand, will be looking to follow their recent good form. The group stage went amazing for the Spanish side and they will be looking to carry that performance in their knockout games as well.
This will be the first meeting between the two sides in the Champions League since the 2022 final, and both teams will be hoping to make a statement in this highly anticipated clash. Liverpool will be looking to take advantage of Real Madrid’s defensive vulnerabilities, while the Spanish giants will be relying on their attacking firepower to secure a win.
