'We Have Lost Some Big Games Against Them': Van Dijk On High-stake Clash Vs Real Madrid
“We cannot underplay or underestimate this one. I am well aware that I have never beaten Real Madrid as a player, and that as a team we have lost some big games against them. Our record against them is obviously something we would like to change, but I can assure you that that is not something that will affect our preparations for this game. It’s the Champions League, it’s a massive game, a beautiful fixture for the neutral, and it’s one that we want to come out on top of," wrote Van Dijk in the club's official matchday programme.
Arne Slot’s great start to life at Liverpool has seen the side sit comfortably at first place in both UEFA Champions League and the Premier League. They are the only team to still boast a winning record with four wins in as many games and will be hoping to overcome Real Madrid, a side that has haunted them in the past. The two teams clashed in the final of the 2018 and the 2023 UCL final with Los Blancos prevailing both times, It will be a must win for Ancelotti’s men if they hope to secure a top eight berth, with the team sitting in 18th place with only two wins in four games.
