HEADING INTO THE HOME STRAIGHT


The Reds will be aiming to take some giant steps
towards silverware when they play three more
Premier League games in the city this month.
Jürgen Klopp’s men will close in on a first top-flight
title in 30 years if they can beat Bournemouth at Anfield
on Saturday 7 March, Everton at Goodison Park on
Monday 16 March and Crystal Palace and Saturday 21
March.
If that happens, they could then have the chance of
being crowned champions with victory at Manchester
City at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday 5 April. That
picture would change, of course, should either the Reds


or City lose points along the way.
On Wednesday 11 March, there is also the matter of
the return leg of the Champions League round of 16
clash with Atletico Madrid. The Reds will be looking to
overturn their single-goal first-leg deficit when Diego
Simeone’s side come to Anfield for the first time in
almost a decade.
Should Liverpool progress, they will discover their
future opponents in the draw for the quarter-finals and
semi-finals that takes place in Nyon on Friday 20 March.
The quarter-finals are likely to be played on 8 and 14 of
April.
