Liverpool vs Juventus

Twenty years on from the Heysel disaster, Liverpool play Juventus in the European Cup at Anfield on Tuesday evening, the first time the teams have met since.Milan Baros returns to Liverpool's line-up for the Champions League quarterfinal first leg with Juventus. The Czech striker is currently serving a three-match domestic ban but is able to play in Europe. Dietmar Hamann is set to miss out with a knew injury and Fernando Morientes and Mauricio Pellegrino are cup-tied, so defender Sami Hyypia will return. For Juventus David Trezeguet should be passed fit after suffering an ankle injury, although the Frenchman is likely to be on the bench. It is though the other striker at Juventus who is most of interest, and that is Del Piero. Looking back at this season and last season's Champions League and it is interesting to note that Del Piero scores a high percentage of goals away.Goals should be at a premium in this match with Liverpool losing so many attacking players and going up against a tough Juve defence, while the visitors are unlikely to be too adventurous. For this reason, it is worth backing Del Piero at 7/1 to score the first goal and not bothering with the anytime market.
