Liverpool look for three points away against Sevilla in the Champions League
Liverpool are set to play Sevilla on Tuesday in the Champions league as the season moves ahead. Both teams will be looking for a win.
Kick-off : 8:45 PM (Local)
Venue : Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, Seville
Liverpool are currently top of their group. They are on eight points from 4 games. They will aim for a win in Seville.
On the other hand, Sevilla are second in the group. They are on seven points from 4 games. They will need to keep winning games to top the group.
The Reds draw with Sevilla at home in the reverse fixture of the campaign. So it will be a sterner test for them playing away from home.
So far Liverpool and Sevilla have played each other two times. Out of that Sevilla have won once and one game have ended in a draw. Liverpool are yet to register a win over the Spanish club.
It should be a good game on Tuesday night as both teams will give their all.
