Liverpool welcome Luis Suarez back to Anfield in the next batch of Champions League fixtures on TV, as Atletico Madrid come to town this week.

The former Reds striker was kept at bay as Liverpool defeated Atletico 3-2 in a pulsating reverse fixture two weeks ago.

Antoine Griezmann scored twice to cancel out early strikes from Mohamed Salah and Naby Keita, but he was sent off in the second half and a Salah penalty secured the points.

Griezmann’s suspension puts Suarez firmly in the frame to start this week, but Liverpool have plenty of their own weapons to deploy against the Spaniards.

They have racked up 11 goals in just three games against AC Milan, Porto and Atletico from a variety of sources and will hope to put their opponents to the sword once more.

Our prediction: Liverpool v Atletico Madrid

Liverpool have been superb in 2021/22 so far across all competitions, and truly ferocious on the continent.

Sure, Jurgen Klopp would appreciate a clean sheet at some stage as 3-2 victories over AC and Atletico weren’t exactly clean, but slamming home the sheer volume of goals as they have done will terrify opponents.

With Salah in stunning form, you simply can’t predict any other result than a Liverpool win.

Our prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Atletico Madrid (15/2 at bet365).
