Charlie Nicholas tells Rangers to 'suffocate' Liverpool and Reds' aging midfield can be exploited

Charlie Nicholas is giving Rangers a chance at Anfield, as long as they can blunt Liverpool's razor sharp attack.

Jurgen Klopp's side will be firm favourites to win tonight's Champions League Group A encounter on Merseyside with the Gers still seeking their first points of the campaign after heavy defeats to Ajax and Napoli. However, the 20-time English Premier League champions have stuttered domestically, winning just two of their opening league games.

One of those however, was a 9-0 demolition of Bournemouth an Anfield. When Klopp's men are it, there are few teams in the world that can live with them in full flow, which is why Nicholas is urging Gio van Bronckhorst to go with safety in numbers and pack his defence. Mo Salah, Luis Diaz and Roberto Firmino know where the goals are and mega-money summer signing Darwin Nunez has proved a handful on the European stage with Benfica.
