Sport Mediaset proposed an 8-team play-off tournament for determining the league winner and who qualifies to European competitions

Neymar’s Champions League career by numbers so far:

⬡ 56 games
⬢ 34 goals
⬢ 22 assists

A goal/assist every appearance on average. 🤯

In major UEFA European competition, seven of Atlético Madrid’s 13 away visits to England have ended as draws (W2 D7 L4), with Los Colchoneros unbeaten in their last four matches there (W1 D3), since losing 1-2 to Liverpool in April 2010. Stubborn.

Since the start of 2018/19, only two players have scored 25+ league goals *AND* provided 25+ league assists in Europe's top five divisions.

Jadon Sancho is keeping extremely good company.

PSG XI: Navas; Kehrer, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Bernat; Paredes, Gueye; Di María, Sarabía; Neymar, Cavani.

Dortmund XI: Bürki; Piszczek, Hummels, Zagadou; Hakimi, Can, Witsel, Guerreiro; Sancho, Hazard, Haaland.

Atlético Madrid XI: Oblak; Trippier, Savić, Felipe, Lodi; Koke, Partey, Saúl, Correa; Félix, Costa.

Liverpool XI: Adrián; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Salah, Mané, Firmino.

3 - Paris will play their 3rd game behind closed doors at Parc des Princes in their history in all comps

1-0 v Bastia in February 2005 in Ligue 1

3-0 v Boulogne sur Mer in March 2010 in Ligue 1

Jürgen Klopp is yet to lose a European knockout tie over two legs as Liverpool manager and the Reds are unbeaten in 15 Champions League home games (W11, D4).

Will Simeone’s Atletico blemish Klopp’s European record?

If Jan Oblak is not the best goalkeeper in the world, who is?

Behind every great winger is a great wing-back.

Since he joined the club in September 2014, Alejandro Gómez was on the pitch in 100 of the 109 Atalanta wins in all competitions.

Just two of Neymar's 35 Champions League goals have been headers:

2015 vs. PSG (for Barcelona)
2020 vs. BVB (for PSG)

Jan Oblak has now made seven saves against Liverpool this evening, the most by any goalkeeper in a Champions League knockout game so far this season.

The last line of defence is holding firm for Atleti.

Fouls conceded: 1
Shots on target: 0

A tame night for Diego Costa in the end.

Four of Georginio Wijnaldum’s five goals in the Champions League have come in the knockout rounds of the competition, scoring three headed goals in the process.
