LIVERPOOL VS MANCHESTER CITY
| Wednesday, April 4th |
Champions League | Anfield
7:45PM GMT/2:45PM EST
Can you feel it? The nervousness? The excitement? Everything we’ve been missing about a deep Champions League run for the last 9 years? Liverpool enter the match undefeated so far in Europe, and would gladly continue that run for at least two more matches. Of course, they face run-away Premier League champions-elect Manchester City, so it is by no means an easy task. All signs point to two high-scoring matches, though Liverpool would gladly take a repeat of the nervy 1-0 win on New Year’s eve in 2016. It should be a great one for the neutrals, and a terrible one for supporters. Hold on to your butts.
