Liverpool travel to Benfica in their first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final tie on Tuesday as they aim to gain the upper hand on their Portuguese opposition ahead of the second leg at Anfield next week.
But a trip to the Estadio da Luz won’t be easy by any means against a side who have already beaten Barcelona at home in the competition this season, as the Primeira Liga outfit look to make it to the semi-finals for the first time since 1990.
The Reds recorded a 2-0 defeat of Watford in the Premier League on Saturday to extend their winning run to 10 matches, while Benfica suffered a 3-2 defeat away to Braga on Friday.
