Liverpool will be taking a sizeable advantage with them to Anfield for the second leg of their Last 16 Europa League clash against Sparta Prague.
The Merseysiders went big against the Czech outfit in Prague, registering five goals to the hosts’ lone effort, courtesy of efforts from Alexis Mac Allister, Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz and Dominik Szoboszlai.
Another rotated lineup should be set to meet Brian Priske’s side at L4, however, following a draining 1-1 draw with Manchester City in the Premier League.
