Right or wrong, Kroos and Modric will get another chance to start in the midfield against a physical and strong team like Liverpool.

Real Madrid vs Liverpool live updates: Champions League preview ... (The Athletic)

Liverpool need to produce one of the greatest comebacks in Champions League history if they are to eliminate Real Madrid from the tournament today.

Even when Liverpool were well on top during the early stages, there was little panic from Madrid’s key players. When they are ahead, Liverpool’s control in the game is often strong. Once Madrid were 3-2 ahead, their ability to counter-attack against Liverpool was clinical and were key components in both of Benzema’s finishes. However, keeping a solid defensive structure is crucial when building an attack and it is something Liverpool have lacked this season. Gomez, along with his team-mates, looked static and failed to attack the ball as Militao flew towards it. Three weeks ago the tie was done. France’s interior minister Gerald Darmanin and minister of sport Amelie Oudea-Castera were also targeted with a banner with the caption: ‘Menteurs’ — the French word for liars. On that front, the Liverpool manager could certainly have no complaints. We learn and have to try to be less exposed.” “It’s not easy coming to Santiago Bernabeu with three goals down,” he said. “We have to do both things, attacking and defending, properly. Real Madrid lead the last-16 tie 5-2.

Real Madrid vs Liverpool : Lineups and LIVE updates (Goal.com)

Liverpool will need a miracle when they travel to the Bernabeu for the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Real Madrid.

On the other hand, Los Blancos have forgotten when they last lost a European knockout tie thanks to their dominance and never-say-die attitude in recent times. Of course, Liverpool are no strangers to European comebacks. The Reds have been inconsistent all season.

Jurgen Klopp is light in midfield so goes with James Milner as Reds attempt the near-impossible.

[Paramount+](https://www.paramountplus.com/?cbscidmt=sports&ftag=PPM-03-10aie0i) However, that was at Anfield and Liverpool's traveling record in 2023 is not impressive with two wins from eight and a seven-game winless run against Real since their 2009 quarterfinal success which ended 4-0. Liverpool remain consistently inconsistent after their unexpected loss to Bournemouth which enabled Tottenham Hotspur to take a six-point lead in the chase for fourth spot and UCL qualification -- albeit with a game in hand. The only time that Real have not advanced after winning a Champions League knockout opening leg away from home on 27 occasions was once to Ajax back in 2019. [Paramount+](https://www.paramountplus.com/?cbscidmt=sports&ftag=PPM-22-10beg1g&promo=allyear). Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah had opened up a two-goal lead inside of 15 minutes yet Los Blancos were level by half time and out of sight midway through the second half. Just when you are ready to write the Spanish giants off, they deliver a showing like this which hints that there is further life in the old beast yet. Jurgen Klopp's men will start 5-2 down on aggregate at Santiago Bernabeu and recent form has not exactly been overwhelming in terms of suggesting that an epic recovery is on the cards. We look at how we expect the two team to lineup in the Spanish capital come Wednesday evening. You can catch all the action only on [Paramount+](https://www.paramountplus.com/?cbscidmt=sports&ftag=PPM-03-10aie0i). Still, Liverpool have UCL comeback pedigree and if anybody can boast flakier form than the Reds since their first leg meeting then it is Carlo Ancleotti's side.

Real Madrid vs Liverpool lineups, starting 11 for Champions League ... (Sporting News)

Liverpool face a mammoth task to stay in the Champions League this season as they head to Real Madrid in Round of 16 second-leg action.

Klopp's record as Liverpool boss against Real Madrid reads as five matches and no wins for the German coach after losing out to Los Blancos in the 2018 and 2022 Champions League finals. Klopp's chances of silverware in 2023 will be decided by this result, with the Reds out of the Premier League title race and facing a scrap to secure a top-four finish in the run-in. Ancelotti will be aiming to ease his side over the line in this tie as they continue to battle with Barcelona in the La Liga title race, with the veteran Italian under pressure not to end the season without a trophy.
