Liverpool’s recent clash with Atalanta was an absolute disaster as Jurgen Klopp’s selection failed to defeat the team and even open score for themselves when the defending champions of Premier League’s side were defeated by 2-0 in the Champions League. After the Leicester win Reds made five changes in the squad and made a heavy change in the backline which might have cost them the match.
This was the first defeat they faced at Anfield ever since the Blues won in September 2018. This was 137 matches for Klopp on the Anfield ground and would be known as one the heaviest losses he faced. The second-half goals from Josip Ilicic and Robin Gosens ensured that Liverpool players would need to be rested from the final names from the group who lost to the side which had recently posted a 5-0 loss.
