Liverpool play hosts to Italian giants Inter Milan at Anfield on Tuesday night in the second leg tie of the Champions League Round of 16.
Jurgen Klopp’s men edged past West Ham United in a closely contested league affair last time around with Sadio Mane’s first half strike securing the three points for the Reds.
Shifting their attention back to the Champions League, Liverpool are well placed to advance to the next round of the competition after picking up a 2-0 win in the reverse leg held at San Siro.
Inter Milan, meanwhile, head into the midweek contest on Merseyside following a thumping 5-0 win against Salernitana in domestic football.

TEAM NEWS
Jurgen Klopp has three primary concerns on the injury front in the form of Thiago Alcantara, Roberto Firmino and Joel Matip who sat out the last game.
Ibrahima Konate would be expected to retain his starting berth should Matip not be deemed fit to make the XI while Diogo Jota is backed to earn a recall at the expense of January signing Luis Diaz.
MATCH PREDICTION
Liverpool are strong favourites and the home support should help steer the tie in the Reds’ favour.
Liverpool 1-0 Inter Milan
