Manager Jurgen Klopp says it will see two of the best sides in the Champions League go head-to-head. For both of these sides will have the benefit of Video Assistant Referee (VAR) for the first time in a Champions League game. The opening goal appeared to be offside but the referee decided not to consult VAR and therefore failed to rule it out. That night, Klopp questioned the point of VAR and hinted officials might be using the technology as something to hide behind. Ajax had a goal ruled out by VAR in their game against Real Madrid last weekKlopp has urged the Liverpool fans to create an incredible atmosphere at Anfield
