FC Liverpool is quiet after 2-0 on the tour
FC Liverpool ranked second in Group C of the Champions League, 9 points after Paris Saint-Germain 11 points, but SSC Napoli 9 points and Red Belgrade 4 points. The results of the English were 3-2 (home) and 1-2 (away) with Paris Saint-Germain, 0-1 (away) and 1-0 (home) with Napoli SSC and 4-0 (home) and 0-2 (away) with Belgrade Red Star. In the finals, LFC eliminated Bayern München, 0-0 (home) and 3-1 (away), and in the first quarter of the quarter-finals he won home, 2-0 with FC Porto. The team coached by Jürgen Klopp made an excellent match in the tour with the Portuguese, and the two goals scored by Sadio Mané (51) and Mohamed Salah (53) are likely to be decisive. Normally, “cormorants” should qualify in the semifinals, because they are too strong and experienced to lose 3-0 in Porto or to reach the penalty kicks. A goal scored on “Estádio do Dragão” by the triplet Sadio Mané – Mohamed Salah – Roberto Firmino, would definitely solve the problem of qualification.
- Probable team FC Liverpool (4-3-3): Alisson – Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, van Dijk, Robertson – Henderson, Fabinho, Keita – Salah, Firmino, Mané
- Coach: Jürgen Klopp
- Injured: Joe Gomez, Alex Oxlade Chamberlain

FC Porto vs FC Liverpool Picks
The tour was 2-0 for Liverpool, so Porto will have an impossible mission. There are also surprises in football, as Ajax eliminates Real Madrid after 1-2 home or Manchester United on Paris SG after 0-2 home, but this is not the case, because “white-blue” does not have the force of to at least reach the 11m strokes or to score 3 goals for the “Reds”. If the English will quickly mark a goal, they will definitively nudge the Portuguese for the idea of a miraculous qualification. It should also be noted that FC Porto has never defeated it in 7 matches played in the European Cups on FC Liverpool.
