Champions League Wednesday Preview

Reigning champions Liverpool continue the defence of their European crown on Wednesday.

Jurgen Klopp’s men opened up with a shock defeat at Napoli in Group E and they will look to bounce back at Anfield as they host in-form Red Bull Salzburg.

Like Liverpool, Chelsea are also looking to bounce back from an opening defeat in Group H. Frank Lampard’s side went down to Valencia but they travel to Lille in somewhat better form.

The undoubted game of the evening on Wednesday is in Group F where Barcelona host Inter Milan.

We run through every game including predictions from former England, Crystal Palace and Tottenham midfielder Andy Gray, our own Football Insider Graeme Bailey and BoyleSports’ Lawrence Lyons.
