Liverpool face Midtjylland at Anfield on Tuesday, Oct. 27. Here’s all the info you need to watch this Champions League match.
In the second game of the Champions League group stage, Liverpool host Midtjylland at Anfield. The Reds opened the group stage with a 1-0 victory over Ajax. While the Wolves lost their Champions League debut 4-0 to Atalanta.
Liverpool defeated Sheffield United 2-1 in their Premier League game over the weekend. However, defense remains an issue after Virgil van Dijk suffered a potentially season-ending knee injury. Manager Jurgen Klopp will have to figure out which two players he will start at center-back going forward with Joel Matip, Joe Gomez, and Fabinho the obvious options. While the Reds have been shaky at the back, they can outside their mistakes, especially against a small cub like Midtjylland. Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane have combined for 10 goals to lead the club.
Midtjylland have only lost two games this season but will be up against their toughest opponent of the season. The Wolves are one of the smallest clubs in the Champions League and the definition of minnows in the competition. Midtjylland will likely try to play conservatively and steal a point from Liverpool but even that will be an extremely difficult task. Former Brighton winger Anders Dreyer will play a key role for Midtjylland on Tuesday. Dreyer has five goals and four assists in 10 games across all competitions this season.
