Danny Murphy says Rangers don’t possess the quality to trouble Liverpool in their Champions League Battle of Britain return showdown and says the Ibrox crowd will only give Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side a “small chance” of victory.
The former Anfield midfielder won five major honours during seven years with the Merseyside giants and believes his old club will be too strong for Rangers. Jurgen Klopp’s men won 2-0 in the first Group A clash but were more dominant than the scoreline suggested.
Van Bronckhorst has vowed to be more positive in his approach against the English Premier League side with home advantage and Murphy reckons the crowd will be a factor. But despite Liverpool low on confidence, trailing league leaders Manchester City by 14 points ahead of their meeting this weekend and mounting injury issues the ex-England international can only see one outcome.
