Jurgen Klopp says Liverpool 'can't take comebacks for granted' and insists repeat of heroics against Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona in past five years will be much tougher in an empty Anfield as they strive to overcome 3-1 deficit to Real Madrid

Jurgen Klopp says Liverpool 'can't take comebacks for granted' just because they've stunned opponents in the past as they try and overhaul a 3-1 deficit against Real Madrid.

Klopp's side famously came back from 3-0 down to beat Barcelona 4-0 in the 2019 Champions League semi-finals.

And precisely five years ago on Wednesday they also came from three goals behind to beat Borussia Dortmund 4-3 and reach the Europa League semi-finals.

Jurgen Klopp has acknowledged the scale of Liverpool's challenge as they attempt to overcome a 3-1 deficit against Real Madrid and reach the Champions League semi-finals

One both occasions, they had a raucous Anfield crowd squarely behind them and that factor will be missing when they host the 13-time European champions.
