Maribor vs Liverpool: 5 Talking Points

#1 Results elsewhere in Group E made it a happy night for Liverpool

Group E to Liverpool?

Sevilla’s trip to Russia saw the Spaniards lose by a massive 5-1 scoreline which took everyone by surprise. The result now means Liverpool have a good chance of finishing as group leaders as all they need is to avoid a defeat to Sevilla away from home.

With winnable home games against Maribor and Spartak Moscow yet to be played, Jürgen Klopp’s side can now be assured of a place in the round of 16 where they might get a favourable draw.

After becoming the first English team to win in Maribor, Klopp’s side will hope they can carry the form they showed in Slovenia at the Wembley. It won’t be easy, as Spurs themselves managed a good result against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.
