Liverpool kick off Europe with a huge test
Liverpool launch their Champions League campaign on Wednesday at Anfield against Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid. New signing Alexander Isak, the $169m arrival, is expected to debut, training closely with Mohamed Salah. Federico Chiesa stays professional despite missing out, while Curtis Jones remains sidelined.
Alexis Mac Allister offers a fitness boost, and Milos Kerkez looks to bounce back after his early substitution. It’s a stern first test for Arne Slot’s side — like starting your driving lessons directly on the M25 during rush hour.
