Liverpool has yet to be defeated in any competition in the current season , but Atletico Madrid has reason to believe it can be the first to spoil the Reds’ unbeaten season.
Liverpool handed Atletico Madrid a 3-2 loss in their most recent group-stage meeting, but it was an Antoine Griezmann red card in that match that really turned the tide with the match tied 2-2.
In Group F, Atalanta had a 2-0 lead before chaos ensued in Manchester United’s three-goal comeback in the first matchup. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s chair is still hot, even after a 3-0 weekend win over Tottenham, and cannot afford to let Tuesday’s rematch get out of hand.
Group D leader Sheriff has emerged as the Cinderella story in this year’s tournament but has to see the same Inter side that beat them 3-1 in the last round of action. Inter should be coming in with the intent to be the one team in the group committed to bringing the Moldovan side back down to earth.
Elsewhere, MLS playoff picture will get a little more clear after a full slate of midweek action. Monday’s Seattle Sounders – LA Galaxy contest is a must-win for the latter and will have a ripple effect on the lower end of the Western Conference.
