Liverpool and Atletico are opening their campaigns in the Champions League, and both teams would like to avoid such a start.

For Liverpool, who finished first in their group last year, focusing on excellent play, this season begins with new hopes. Although the team was favored to win the tournament, they faced disappointment in the Round of 16, but today they are ready for new challenges.

In summer, Liverpool invested a record amount – 450 million pounds, including 125 million pounds for Alexander Isak on deadline day. Although Isak did not play in Sunday's match against Burnley (a 1-0 victory thanks to a penalty in stoppage time), he is expected to be in the starting lineup for this game.

Atletico, on the other hand, has struggled at the start of the season, achieving their first victory in their fourth match, defeating Villarreal 2-0. Now the team is ready to combine forces in Merseyside, hoping for success.

Predictions for the Liverpool vs Atletico match

Lack of goals

In the last three matches, Atletico has scored only two goals, indicating their difficulties in attack. In comparison, Liverpool has won their last two matches with the same score of 1-0 against Arsenal and Burnley.

There may be more moments on European nights at Anfield, but expect a fierce battle for goals.

Struggle for a starting place

Cody Gakpo seems to be fighting for his place on the left flank, as rumors suggest that Hugo Ekitike may take his position when Alexander Isak takes the field.

Despite this, Gakpo has already managed to score one goal and provide three assists in four Premier League matches, playing all minutes. His presence could be crucial for the team in this game.
