Liverpool FC will lock horns against the defending champions of the Bundesliga on Tuesday night at Anfield. The Reds are always the favourites when they play at the Anfield and surely the atmosphere will make things difficult for the German outfit. The Reds enter this match full of confidence as they are in really good form and under Slot they are flying.

Currently, they are top of the table in the Premier League and will look to continue their form against Xabi Alonso’s men in the Champions League. Recently, Leverkusen have had some draws and Alonso raised concerns in the media. Overall, the German side are a top-quality team and can give a tough challenge to the home team.

Playing as an away team in Anfield in the Champions League is a tough task to do. They are creating a lot of chances but they need to be more clinical to get a positive result. This future will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.
