Liverpool must fear TWO Porto players during Champions League clash - analyst EXCLUSIVE
LIVERPOOL take on Porto on Tuesday night in the first-leg of their Champions League quarter-final and there are two players Jurgen Klopp’s side should fear.
It will be a different contest this time around though, and Portuguese scout and analyst Tiago Estevao believes there are two players the Reds should fear.
“There’s a couple players to look out for,” he told Express Sport.
“[Jesus Manuel] Corona is having his best season since he arrived in Portugal and would probably be my pick.
“He’s a quick winger who can play on either side and is very skill-full when it comes to one-versus-one situations.

“He’ll be a threat on the counter and is also very active off the ball, so will be important either disrupting Liverpool’s build-up or defending deep.
“Beyond him, [Moussa] Marega is dangerous if Liverpool leave too much space in behind.”
Estevao also made his clear that Porto supporters were not pleased with the draw, with Liverpool tipped as one of the favourites to win the competition.
“Liverpool are widely seen as one of the favourites to win the competition and, specially after what happened last year, Porto fans were obviously not satisfied with the draw,” he added.
