Liverpool have made two changes ahead of tonight's match with Real Madrid. Diogo Jota starts as an extra striker up front and James Milner brings experience to the midfield in place of Harvey Elliott. Real Madrid trots out their usual star-studded lineup, headlined by Vinicius Jr., but they also have plenty of firepower around him and on the bench as well

LFC Globe Verdict
I like Jürgen Klopp starting 3 strikers in Darwin Núñez, Mohamed Salah, and Jota. If you are going to try and erase a three-goal deficit, that's not a bad trio to have on the front line. I also like having the experience of James Milner in the midfield. Harvey Elliott is a fantastic young player, but he doesn't have many big games like this under his belt yet.
