Needing to pull off another of their miraculous continental comebacks, Liverpool make the trip to Atalanta BC for the second leg of their Europa League quarter-final on Thursday.
Jurgen Klopp's meek men were torn to shreds in their opening battle at Anfield last week, where Gianluca Scamacca's brace and a Mario Pasalic strike propelled La Dea to an emphatic 3-0 victory.
The Reds' misery was prolonged with yet another home defeat at the weekend, as a 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace leaves Thursday's visitors two points behind new Premier League leaders Manchester City in the table.
