"Failing to gain a first-leg advantage on foreign soil earlier in the week as they slumped to a disappointing 1-0 loss against Turkish giants Galatasaray, Liverpool will know the importance of claiming an immediate response here. Despite having a battle on their hands in the race to punch another Champions League ticket this season, Slot's side will be excited to make a return to Anfield this weekend."
"Last seen in the red half of Merseyside claiming an action-packed 5-2 victory against West Ham as they signed off February with a flurry, Liverpool have won four of their previous five showdowns in front of their own supporters. Likewise, including a thumping 4-1 win against Newcastle on January 31st, Sunday's hosts have suffered just a single defeat at Anfield across any competition since the end of November."
"While Mohamed Salah might have found himself at the heart of a public feud with Slot prior to leaving for the 2026 AFCON back in December, the Egyptian icon has enjoyed a recent boost. Despite continued speculation over his future at Anfield ahead of the summer, Salah has found the net in consecutive matches."
