Villarreal president Fernando Roig has warned Liverpool 'special measures' will be taken ahead of their Champions League semi-final second leg, preventing travelling supporters from gaining access to the home sections of the stadium.
Jurgen Klopp's side host the Yellow Submarine on Wednesday evening at Anfield, with the return leg at the home of the Spanish outfit to follow on Tuesday, May 3. The Reds have been allocated a total of 2,062 tickets for their trip to Villarreal, meanwhile Unai Emery's side have sold all of their 3,000 available seats in the Anfield away end.
Viewed as the underdogs for their tie with Liverpool, the current Europa League holders will hope the backing of their supporters on Merseyside can help inspire a positive first-leg result to take back to their home ground. Fully aware that the club must have everything in place to produce another upset in the Champions League, action has been taken to ensure Liverpool's presence is limited at the Estadio de la Cerámica.
