Uefa Champions League UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - 2017/18 SEASON MATCH PRESS KITS (First leg: 0-3) City of Manchester Stadium - Manchester Tuesday 10 April 2018 Manchester City FC 20.45CET (19.45 local time) Liverpool FC Quarter-finals, Second leg Last updated 09/04/2018 13:24CET UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE OFFICIAL SPONSORS Match background 2 Legend 6 1 Manchester City FC - Liverpool FC Tuesday 10 April 2018 - 20.45CET (19.45 local time) Match press kit City of Manchester Stadium, Manchester Match background Manchester City FC will need another big home win against Liverpool FC to extend their UEFA Champions League season after the five-time European champions produced an exceptional display at Anfield. • Goals in the first 31 minutes from Mohamed Salah, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Sadio Mané, and a determined defensive effort thereafter, yielded a 3-0 win for the home side on Merseyside on 4 April – although Liverpool will know the size of the task that still awaits them having already lost heavily at City this season in the Premier League. • Although this is only City's second European tie against a fellow English club, this is their second quarter-final in three years – and overall. Liverpool are in the quarter-finals for the first time since 2008/09, but have plenty of experience against domestic rivals in international competition. • This is the 17th time English clubs have been paired together in UEFA competition, and while City have been involved in just one of those previous ties, this is the tenth domestic affair for Liverpool in the European arena, including five of the nine UEFA Champions League knockout contests. • Liverpool's first-leg win was the first by an English club at home in the UEFA Champions League knockout phase since Leicester City FC's 2-0 defeat of Sevilla FC in last season's round of 16 – a run of seven matches including all five in this season's last 16 (D2 L3). There have only been four wins by Premier League clubs in the last 18 knockout home matches over the past four seasons (D6 L8), City accounting for two of those. Previous meetings • While this is a first Liverpool-City game in Europe, the teams have met on 178 occasions in English football. Liverpool have won 87 of those games to City's 45, with 46 draws. • In this season's Premier League, City were 5-0 winners in Manchester on 9 September. Sergio Agüero gave the home side a 24th-minute lead and, after the visitors had lost Mané to a red card following a challenge on City goalkeeper Ederson, further strikes either side of half-time from Gabriel Jesus and a late Leroy Sané double completed an ultimately comfortable win. • Liverpool turned the tables on City at Anfield on 14 January, inflicting a first defeat of the Premier League season on Josep Guardiola's side with a 4-3 victory in an epic encounter. Oxlade-Chamberlain gave the Reds an early lead and, though Sané levelled shortly before half-time, three goals in ten second-half minutes from Roberto Firmino, Mané and Salah put Liverpool 4-1 up. They needed that cushion after Bernardo Silva and İlkay Gündoğan struck in the final six minutes, holding on for a memorable win. • This is the sides' third two-legged knockout tie. Liverpool won those previous encounters, both in the English League Cup semi-finals: 2-1 on aggregate in 1980/81 and 3-2 in 2011/12. On both occasions the Merseyside club went on to win the trophy. Match background Manchester City • This is only Manchester City's second European Cup quarter-final: 2015/16 Paris Saint-Germain W 3-2 (2-2 a, 1-0 h) • They have played only one previous tie against a fellow English club. In the 1970/71 European Cup Winners' Cup semi-finals City, as holders, lost 1-0 both away and home to Chelsea. • City's 13-match unbeaten home run in the UEFA Champions League (W10 D3), qualifying included, was ended by FC Basel 1893 in the round of 16, the Swiss side winning 2-1 to inflict a first home loss since a 2-1 Juventus reversal on matchday one in 2015/16. Guardiola's side won the first leg 4-0 in Switzerland. • This season City have beaten FC Shakhtar Donetsk (2-0), SSC Napoli (2-1) and Feyenoord (1-0) in Manchester. They had won seven of their previous eight home European matches, including four in a row before losing to Basel. • Having won their first five games in this season's competition, City lost 2-1 at Shakhtar on matchday six. They had previously won 4-0 at Feyenoord and 4-2 at Napoli and have won six of their eight matches in this season's competition. • City have won only two of the six UEFA competition ties in which they lost the away first leg – and have lost the last four such ties on aggregate, most recently against Sporting Clube de Portugal in the 2011/12 UEFA Europa League round of 16 (0-1 away, 2-1 home – Sporting win on away goals). • Indeed, the Citizens have not won a tie on aggregate after an away first-leg loss since beating Górnik Zabrze in the 1970/71 European Cup Winners' Cup quarter-finals, and even then they needed a replay after each side won 2-0 at home; City were 3-1 victors in the third game. 2 Manchester City FC - Liverpool FC Tuesday 10 April 2018 - 20.45CET (19.45 local time) Match press kit City of Manchester Stadium, Manchester • City's record in penalty shoot-outs in UEFA competition is W2 L0: 4-2 v FC Midtjylland, 2008/09 UEFA Cup second qualifying round 4-3 v Aalborg BK, 2008/09 UEFA Cup round of 16 Liverpool • Liverpool have won nine of their previous 13 European Cup quarter-finals: 2008/09 Chelsea FC L 5-7 (1-3 h, 4-4 a) 2007/08 Arsenal FC W 5-3 (1-1 a, 4-2 h) 2006/07 PSV Eindhoven W 4-0 (3-0 a, 1-0 h) 2004/05 Juventus W 2-1 (2-1 h, 0-0 a) 2001/02 Bayer 04 Leverkusen L 3-4 (1-0 h, 2-4 a) 1984/85 FK Austria Wien W 5-2 (1-1 a, 4-1 h) 1983/84 SL Benfica W 5-1 (1-0 h, 4-1 a) 1982/83 Widzew Łódź L 3-4 (0-2 a, 3-2 h) 1981/82 PFC CSKA Sofia L 1-2 (1-0 h, 0-2 a) 1980/81 PFC CSKA Sofia W 6-1 (5-1 h, 1-0 a) 1977/78 SL Benfica W 6-2 (2-1 a, 4-1 h) 1976/77 AS Saint-Étienne W 3-2 (0-1 a, 3-1 h) 1964/65 1. FC Köln W 2-2, Liverpool won on coin toss (0-0 a, 0-0 h, 2-2 n) • Liverpool have played eight previous two-legged knockout ties against fellow English sides, with the aggregate record W5 L3. Most recently they beat City's local rivals Manchester United FC in the 2015/16 UEFA Europa League round of 16 (2-0 home, 1-1 away), Firmino scoring in the first game at Anfield. • The Reds have played six European Cup ties against domestic rivals, beginning against Nottingham Forest FC in the 1978/79 first round (0-2 away, 0-0 home). • Their remaining five all-English ties have all come in the UEFA Champions League era: 2004/05 semi-finals: Chelsea FC W 1-0 (0-0 a, 1-0 h) 2006/07 semi-finals: Chelsea FC W 4-1pens (0-1 a, 1-0 h aet) 2007/08 quarter-finals: Arsenal FC W 5-3 (1-1 a, 4-2 h) 2007/08 semi-finals: Chelsea FC L 3-4 (1-1 h, 2-3 a aet) 2008/09 quarter-finals: Chelsea FC L 5-7 (1-3 h, 4-4 a) • Liverpool also played out two goalless draws against Chelsea in the 2005/06 group stage. • The Reds have therefore never won an away European game against an English club (D5 L4); their record against domestic rivals overall is W6 D8 L5. • Liverpool were 7-0 winners at NK Maribor on matchday three, their club record European away victory. They also won 5-0 at FC Porto in the round of 16 first leg, going through by the same aggregate score. • They have nevertheless won just four of their last 17 European away games (D8 L5), having drawn 1-1 at FC Spartak Moskva in their first Group E away match and let slip a 3-0 half-time lead to draw 3-3 at Sevilla FC in this season's group stage. Before triumphing at TSG 1899 Hoffenheim in their play-off first leg, the Merseysiders' last away success had been a 1-0 UEFA Europa League group stage win at FC Rubin Kazan on 5 November 2015. • Liverpool have triumphed in 29 UEFA competition ties when they have won the home first leg – most recently against City's neighbours Manchester United FC in the 2015/16 UEFA Europa League round of 16 (2-0 home, 1-1 away) – and lost only five. Four of those aggregate losses came after a one-goal margin in the home first leg; the exception was the 1964/65 European Cup semi-final against FC Internazionale Milano, when a 3-1 home win was overturned by a 3-0 reverse in Italy.
