Liverpool won both ties the last time these 2 sides met in this competition in 2008, but there isn’t a single player from either of those sides in these squads and the Italian league leaders are a very different proposition these days.
Simone Inzaghi has built a team that is very hard to beat, and they will come into this game full of confidence on a run of just 1 defeat in their last 9. They have scored in 8 of those 9 games and whilst they will be cautious of conceding the away goal, they have enough about them to trouble Liverpool’s normally solid defence. With both sides in solid form, the draw looks the most likely outcome.
