Liverpool facts

  • The Reds are aiming to reach their 8th Final. Only Real Madrid (12) and AC Milan (11) have played in more. They will move ahead of Bayern Munich, Benfica and Juventus who have each played in seven.

  • England are guaranteed to have a 15th representative in the final and it will be 16 should Manchester United overcome Barcelona in the other Semi-Final.
    Of Liverpool's previous 14 away Semi-Final games in Europe they have won four, drawn four and lost six. When the second leg has been away from Anfield the record is won, drawn and lost two each.

  • They are looking to record their first away victory at this stage of European competition in a tie when they failed to win the first leg at Anfield.

  • Liverpool have not scored in any of their last four games in a European Semi-Final away from home. The last man to achieve the feat was Mark Lawrenson in a 1-0 win at Panathinaikos in 1985.
