Liverpoolâs last win over Real Madrid came at the round of 16 stages of the competition in 2009, beating the Spanish giants 5-0 on aggregate.
Madridâs Champions League campaign this season didnât start quite well but Zidane has managed to turn things around for them, losing just one of their last five games. On the other hand, Liverpoolâs only defeat in the competition came at the hands of Madridâs round of 16 opponents, Atalanta, who beat the Reds 2-0 at Anfield in the group stage.
No matter the current form of both teams, the match promises to be a very competitive and action-packed one.
