Reds host European champions in huge game at Anfield
Liverpool host Real Madrid in a huge Champions League clash this evening.
Arne Slot’s side sit top of the pile in Europe after a stunning season thus far, having smashed Bayer Leverkusen 4-0 last time out in this competition.
This, however, will offer arguably their biggest test yet. Madrid haven’t always convinced but are the European champions after all and generally turn on the style for big nights in this particular tournament.
That said, Carlo Ancelotti’s side sit some way off the automatic spots as things stand, having already lost twice in the opening phase and were beaten by AC Milan earlier this month, and will have to do without an injured Viniciur Jr.
Liverpool vs Real Madrid is scheduled for an 8pm GMT kick-off time tonight on Wednesday, November 27, 2024.
