Liverpool are already through to the last 16 of the Champions League as they battle FC Porto at Anfield tonight.

While, naturally, that could lead to Jurgen Klopp opting to rest a number of big-name stars, history tells us that their Portuguese opposition could struggle.

Indeed, Porto have represented whipping boys of sorts for Liverpool over the last few years and, while they still have ambitions of their own in terms of making it into the next round, do not arrive at Anfield with a good record.

Klopp’s side, meanwhile, looked back to their best in Sunday’s win over Arsenal after a loss to West Ham prior to the international break.

Liverpool vs FC Porto is scheduled for an 8pm GMT kick-off tonight - Wednesday November 24, 2021.
