The first leg games in the Europa League semifinals had good surprises, with Villarreal’s dramatic 1-0 victory over Liverpool being the headline of the round so far. This Thursday, Jürgen Klopp’s men have another chance to stun their opponents the way they did when confronted by Borussia Dortmund in the previous stage of the competition.
Unfortunately, progressing to the final without extra time means winning at least by scoring two goals and keeping a clean sheet, or winning by a two-goal margin at Anfield. Either way, their shocking 3-1 defeat away to Swansea at the weekend in the Premier League does not send out a good message ahead of their European test.
