Liverpool have gone one full year without defeat at Anfield, a record which highlights the scale of Inter’s task in tomorrow’s Champions League round of sixteen second leg at the stadium.
This is noted in today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, who report that the last time that the Reds’ lost at home was to Fulham in the Premier League on March 7 of last year.
The Nerazzurri will know that nothing is impossible in tomorrow’s clash at Anfield, but they will have no illusions about what they are facing.
Anfield is one of European football’s iconic stadiums, and the Reds have made the atmospheric ground an important weapon in their arsenal, particularly in the Champions League.
Since losing to Fulham a year ago at Anfield, the Reds have won 21 matches and drawn seven, and Inter will have to not just hand them their first defeat at the stadium in that time, but do so by two goals or more, in order to go through to the next round.
