Liverpool vs Rangers prediction and odds: Roberto Firmino tipped to improve Champions League fortunes at Anfield

Liverpool have the perfect opportunity to distract themselves temporarily from the mediocrity they are experiencing in the Premier League when they welcome Rangers to Anfield in the Champions League. The Reds, despite recovering well from 2-0 down, could not hold on to their 3-2 lead as Leandro Trossard gave Brighton & Hove Albion a point away from home.

The Reds go into this match as the heavy favourites at 1/7 with Betfred while Rangers at a huge 18/1 and a draw is 8/1. Rangers are typically used to the betting markets being in favour of them in the domestic league but they are 9/2 for a double chance with a draw and yet this is the first time they have ever met in a European competition.

Jurgen Klopp's side will be looking to bounce back form there disappointment against Brighton at the weekend and look to remove their negative goal difference in Group A as they sit three points behind leaders Napoli. For Rangers, they sit at the foot of the group having failed to register a single goal or point in their first two matches.
