Before the match against Lille, Arne Slot interestingly commented on the new Champions League format, where 36 teams are in one tournament table.

The Liverpool coach said: "You might think that the first position is the best place to be at the end of the season, but with this strange tournament table... as an example, I think PSG has the toughest opponents every week, which is why they are low in the table."

You might encounter them if you take that first place in the tournament table. For this reason, I don't take the table too seriously... because of this strange format."

On Tuesday, Liverpool defeated Lille 2:1 and almost secured first place in the table.
