A tactic that was beloved under Jurgen Klopp does not suit Arne Slot's system so easily, even if it helped storm San Siro last night

After a year-long absence, Liverpool return to the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday when they take on AC Milan in one of Matchday 1's most anticipated matches.

Liverpool make the trip to the San Siro to take on AC Milan tonight in what is a blockbuster start to the Champions League. It is a new format for the expanded 36-team competition this season, with each side playing eight matches in the league phase, and only those finishing outside of the top 24 knocked out after those games.
