Liverpool vs AS Roma
UEFA Champions League Semifinal 1st Leg
Date: Tuesday, 24th April 2018
Kick-off at 19:45 UK/ 20:45 CET
Venue: Anfield, Liverpool.

The stage is set for an exciting contest at Anfield on Tuesday when Liverpool welcome Roma for the first leg of the 2017-18 Champions League semifinal.

Very few expected these two teams to be in the semifinals of the competition as they were up against two elite sides on top form in the previous round. Liverpool got the better of their domestic rivals and just crowned English Premier League champions Manchester City with a pair of wins (3-0 home, 2-1 away).

Meanwhile, this Roma side created history by overturning a first leg 4-1 defeat at Barcelona with a 3-0 home win to dump the soon-to-be crowned Spanish Champions out of the competition.
