UEFA Champions League: Liverpool Storm San Siro for Inter

Liverpool of England will take on Inter Milan tonight, in the first leg of the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League in the San Siro Stadium.

Liverpool won all their group stage matches-the first English side to achieve this feat.

They are second in the English Premier League with nine points adrift of leaders Manchester City while Inter Milan ceded Serie A top spot to city rivals AC Milan after their derby loss was followed by a 1-1 draw with title contenders Napoli.

Inter Milan boss, Simeone Inzaghi, who took over from Antonio Conte in the summer said that Liverpool are favorites, “On paper Liverpool are favourites. We know, and I’ve told the boys, that we need to go out there and play our game free from worry.”

Tonight’s other encounter will see RB Salzburg host Bayern Munich.

Last night, Kylian Mbappe scored a stoppage time goal to give Paris Saint Germain a 1-0 victory over Real Madrid while Manchester City tore Sporting Lisbon apart, 5-0 in Portugal.
