Luis Garcia predicts Champions League outcome of Liverpool v Atletico Madrid

Former Liverpool star Luis Garcia has made a bold prediction to the ahead of tomorrow’s Champions League second leg with another of his former clubs, Atletico Madrid.

🉐Jurgen Klopp’s team know that anything other than a win would see them knocked out of the competition.

🌼Garcia played 122 for the Reds, winning the FA Cup and Champions League during his time at Anfield.

ꦜHe also led Atletico Madrid to Intertoto Cup glory in 2007 and he’s predicted the outcome of tomorrow night.

🙈 “Liverpool can do what they have been doing for the whole season, trying to score in the first 10 minutes and put a lot of pressure on the other team, bring the crowd up and loud. I think that will be key.

🌠“At this moment, Liverpool – even though they are down on the score – I think they will go through.

⛄“I’m quite positive, to be honest. I think Liverpool have the power, quality and talent to overcome the situation and go through to the next round.”

൩Garcia was a hugely popular figure during his time at Anfield and although he played for Los Rojiblancos too, it’s clear where his heart still lies.

♐If Liverpool can go through tomorrow it would represent a remarkable turnaround given how resolute Simeone’s men can be.

﷽Klopp would dearly love to retain the title this season and this test looks like a tough one.

ꦍIf one team can pull off a Champions League comeback, however, it’s Liverpool.
