Liverpool is looking to end a run of eight games without a win over Real Madrid when they meet in the Champions League on Wednesday.
Champions League leader Liverpool can make a statement and beef up its cushion at the table summit on Wednesday when bogey team Real Madrid make the long trip to Anfield. The Reds have gone eight meetings and 15 years without a win over Los Blancos, which includes an agonizing defeat to the Spanish kingpins in the final of the 2022 Champions League. However, Arne Slot will look to succeed where Jurgen Klopp could not after a hugely encouraging start to life as Liverpool boss, having lost just once in 18 games in charge and leading his side on a streak of 14 games undefeated.

To call the Reds run of form under new manager Slot remarkable would be an understatement, with the Dutchman taking to life on the Mersey like a proverbial duck to water.
However, there has been nothing like a showdown with Real to humble Liverpool in recent times, having not been better of La Liga’s overlords since March 2009.
Real will be desperate to get a result at Anfield after stumbling to a 3-1 defeat at home to AC Milan earlier this month:
Los Blancos now sit on two wins and two losses from six Champions League outings so far this season, having also fallen at Lille earlier in the competition.
Throw into the mix a 4-0 El Clasico defeat to Barcelona last month, and even Carlo Ancelotti has found his job under some scrutiny in recent weeks.
Both teams will be without top-glass goalkeepers, as Alisson and Thibaut Courtois continue their injury recoveries for Liverpool and Real, respectively.
Some star attacking talent will also miss out, as Diogo Jota and Vinicius Junior sit on the sidelines, while right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold could be a major absence for the host.
Regional restrictions may apply.
