This, on paper seems to be the biggest week of the Liverpool season so far. Real Madrid in the UCL and Man City in the Premier League, but if Liverpool were smart, this would not be a very big week, in fact, it would be like any other week.
According to Opta, Liverpool are heavy favourites to win the Real Madrid game, If Arne Slot was smart, he would rest a few Liverpool players for this one, because in this new UCL format, Liverpool can afford to lose one and will still stay in the auto promotion spots, no point in Liverpool trying to prove they are the best, when a possible title decider is coming up. Liverpool might have the best chance of the season, with a heavily out of form City side, to play in a title clash. Man City come into this with no wins in their last 6, losing 5 and drawing 1, City just look really poor. Against Feyenoord last night, they should have really won that game, but a leaky defence stopping their first win in 6. If the speed and passing play Arne Slot encourages of his Liverpool attack can be used to exploit a City defence that just doesn't look like a City defence.
