Jurgen Klopp’s side will be looking to bounce back from their Premier League draw against Brentford when they visit Porto in the Champions League on Tuesday.

 

Liverpool beat AC Milan in their Champions League group stage opener a fortnight ago and will be looking to add another three points to the board when they face the Portuguese giants.

 

 

However, former Liverpool and Porto star Teixeira has warned the Reds that the Primeira Liga side are better prepared than they were on the last few occasions when the Anfield outfit got the upper hand.

 

Teixeira, who feels Liverpool and Porto’s success in the Champions League is testimony to their history, pointed out that the Portuguese side have managed to keep their best players and are also experienced in the competition.

 

 

Both clubs are on the Champions League’s limited list of winners and this is a fact that demonstrates the history of FC Porto and Liverpool well“, Teixeira told Portuguese sports daily Record.

 

I think FC Porto are now better prepared than in the previous times the two teams faced each other in the Champions League.

 

 

They managed to keep their main players, who, in addition to the quality they showed, are more experienced and know this competition well.

 

It’s a very good thing for FC Porto in terms of the game’s discussion.

 

Liverpool beat Porto 6-1 and 5-0 on aggregate the last two times they faced them in the Champions League and it remains to be seen if they can repeat the trick this time around.
