Gianluca Scamacca라이브 바카라 double and Mario Pasalic라이브 바카라 late strike gave Atalanta a 3-0 win in the first leg of their quarter-final, denting Klopp라이브 바카라 bid to add an eighth different trophy to his Anfield honours roll and end his reign with a showpiece final in Dublin.

Only Manchester City and Aston Villa have ever enjoyed bigger winning margins against Klopp라이브 바카라 Liverpool, across his 483 games since taking charge in October 2015.

City beat their perennial title rivals 5-0 on the way to the 2017-18 crown, Gabriel Jesus and Leroy Sane scoring twice apiece, and then 4-0 in a futile attempt to stop Klopp라이브 바카라 men romping to their Covid-delayed 2019-20 win.

Villa beat a much-changed Liverpool side 5-0 in the Carabao Cup in December 2019 – a defence of Ki-Jana Hoever, Tony Gallacher, Sepp van den Berg and Morgan Boyes powerless to prevent Jonathan Kodjia scoring his only two goals of that season.

More memorably, Ollie Watkins’ hat-trick and a Jack Grealish brace set up a 7-2 league triumph against Klopp라이브 바카라 defending champions in October 2020.

City triumphed 4-1 in 2021, Ilkay Gundogan scoring twice, while last season라이브 바카라 Champions League challenge was effectively ended by that 5-2 defeat in the first leg of their last-16 tie against Real Madrid. Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah gave Liverpool an early 2-0 lead but Vinicius Jr and Karim Benzema scored twice apiece in Real라이브 바카라 emphatic comeback.

City are also among the teams to inflict three-goal away defeats on Klopp라이브 바카라 side, a list that curiously includes Watford on two separate occasions along with Tottenham, Brighton and Wolves in the Premier League and Barcelona and Napoli in the Champions League.

Liverpool라이브 바카라 heaviest ever home defeat is only 6-0, against Sunderland in the First Division in April 1930.
