Liverpool travel to Spain for one of the most hotly-anticipated Champions League fixtures on TV so far in 2021/22 as they face Atletico Madrid.

The Reds are up against former hero Luis Suarez at Wanda Metropolitano and the Uruguayan would surely love to notch against his former employers despite the mutual fondness between player and fans.

Jurgen Klopp's men were dumped out of the 2019/20 Champions League campaign in the Last 16 by Atletico following a gripping two-leg affair.

The Spanish outfit won 1-0 on home soil before losing 1-0 in normal time in the reverse leg at Anfield. Extra time produced four more goals, three from Atletico as they won 3-2 on the night.

Liverpool will hope for a big, gutsy display in the Spanish capital here to build on their campaign so far.

Our prediction: Atletico Madrid v Liverpool

Liverpool have started their Champions League journey in fiery form with two wins out of two and eight goals scored in a tricky Group B.

They defeated AC Milan 3-2 in a hard-fought victory at Anfield before travelling to defeat Porto 5-1 in a crushing away victory.

Atletico represent a level up in terms of pedigree. They too have defeated AC Milan so far in the tournament and dispatched Barcelona with ease in La Liga at the weekend. Expect a tight battle.

Our prediction: Atletico Madrid 1-1 Liverpool (5/1 at bet365).
