Liverpool will continue their quest for a quadruple of trophies when they visit Benfica. But for a change, Jurgen Klopp will have a full squad available for the first time since he took charge of the team in 2015. Liverpool have lost only once in 2022, against Inter Milan in the last-16 at Anfield. Since then, they have won four on the trot. The worrying stats though is that Liverpool have lost their last three matches in Lisbon.

The Reds have already won the League Cup (Carabao Cup) and they are just a point behind Manchester City in the English Premier League. The two teams clash at Etihad Stadium on Sunday in a possible title-deciding fixture. They will meet then meet again in the FA Cup semi-final. But before that, Liverpool have Benfica in their sights. At the same kick-off time, Manchester City take on visiting Atletico Madrid

Benfica are the underdogs in this particular fixture but Nelson Verissimo's men are a battle-hardened lot. They have finished ahead of Barcelona in their Champions League group stage, then defeated Ajax in the last 16. Benfica also don't have major injury worries ahead of the Liverpool clash. They were unbeaten in nine straight matches in all competitions before losing at Braga in the Portuguese league on Friday. For the record, Benfica haven't won against an English side since 2013.
