Team news
Liverpool: The Reds appear to be entering this game 100 percent healthy. The only real question mark was that of Joel Matip after he missed the win over West Ham over the weekend due to an illness. But on Monday he was back, appearing at full training alongside Roberto Firmino and Thiago Alcantara, with all three expected to play in this clash.

Inter Milan: Winger Ivan Perisic has been dealing with muscle fatigue, and he’s missed two games as a result. Meanwhile, center midfielder Nico Barella again misses out, serving the second of his-two game suspension he picked up in the group stage. So after missing the first leg where Inter could have used his creativity, Inter are going to have to find a way to produce something without him in what will be 90 pressure-filled minutes at Anfield.
Scenarios
- Liverpool advance with a win, a draw or a one-goal loss
- A two-goal win for Inter Milan would force extra time
- A three-goal win or better for Inter will see them advance
