Liverpool will take on Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night in the Champions League(Image: Simon Stacpoole/Offside/Offside via Getty Images)Liverpool are set to kick off their 2025/26 Champions League campaign under the iconic Anfield lights against Atletico Madrid.
The Reds are on a mission to lift Europe's most prestigious trophy for a seventh time, following a disappointing end to their pursuit last season.
Arne Slot's side were knocked out by eventual champions Paris Saint-Germain in the last-16 of the competition in March.
However, the reigning English champions will enter the match with some confidence, boosted by their undefeated record in the Premier League this season - even though they've needed late goals to maintain that win rate.
On the other hand, Atletico have had a sluggish start to the La Liga season after making several signings, only securing their first league win at the fourth attempt last weekend with a 2-0 home victory over Villarreal.
Despite this, manager Diego Simeone has a proven track record in the competition and Atleti finished fifth in the newly-launched league phase last campaign.
The two sides last clashed in November 2021 at Anfield, with Liverpool winning the group stage fixture 2-0 thanks to goals from Diogo Jota and Sadio Mane.
Here, we bring you all the details you need to tune into the upcoming league phase clash.
