Liverpool Handed Nightmare Run as Champions League Fixture List Confirmed

Liverpool are set to face both Real Madrid and Manchester City in consecutive home games at Anfield this November, following the confirmation of their Champions League fixture list.

The schedule presents Liverpool with a challenging series of matches, as they are slated to host Real Madrid and Manchester City back-to-back.

This comes after the club’s return to the Champions League, where they learned their eight opponents during Thursday’s draw, marking the beginning of the revamped expansion of Europe’s premier club competition.

In what appears to be a daunting draw, Liverpool found out they would be hosting the reigning champions Real Madrid, along with Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen, Lille, and Bologna.

In addition to these home fixtures, Liverpool will also be traveling to face RB Leipzig, AC Milan, PSV Eindhoven, and Girona.

Liverpool had to wait until Saturday to learn the sequence of their league matches and how these would align with their overall schedule.
