(The Guardian) Champions League Round of 16 first leg: Atlético Madrid v LiverpoolWith the Premier League as good is in the bag, not that anyone at the club is prepared to admit it, Liverpool are more or less free to focus on retaining the Champions League title they won at the Wanda Metropolitano last season. They return to the scene of their sixth European triumph to face an Atlético Madrid side that are not in the best of form, fourth in La Liga with just one win in their past seven games in all competitions. Diego Simeone’s side are no mugs, however, and will be hoping to Liverpool’s first defeat in 11 knockout ties under Jürgen Klopp. Kick-off is at 8pm (GMT) but stay tuned in the meantime for team news and build-up.

(The Guardian) Jurgen Klopp speaks ...“This is one of the most difficult fixtures in the life of a football player,” said Liverpool’s manager during yesterday’s pre-match press duties. “Atlético are a really well organised, well-oiled machine who are amazing at squeezing results. They are in a transition period, that’s normal, but they are fighting with all they have. It’s really difficult. “If there’s one team where you have to be at your absolute best, it’s Atlético. They give you absolutely no presents. If you work as hard as possible, you have a chance. If you don’t do that, you have no chance.” Diego Simeone speaks ...“As you know, we deal with things one game at a time here,” said Atletico’s manager. “We will cross each bridge when we get there. We are facing a magnificent team, well trained by a coach with a difference. He can play counter, possession, they are strong in the air. I have no doubt this Liverpool side will go down in history as a great team. They are different to teams we have admired in the past. They are intense, adaptable.

(The Guardian) Jurgen Klopp speaks: “A big fight,” says Liverpool’s manager, when asked what he’s expecting tonight, by BT Sport’s debonair and dishy pitch side reporter, Des Kelly. “I don’t think anyone ever played Atleti and expected to get anything out of the game without a big fight. It’s in their DNA, but it’s in also our DNA. They’re really strong, we know that, but we’ve showed that we’re not too bad at that either.”
