Virgil van Dijk has called for Liverpool to make a statement and change the away form that has made their campaign a constant headache.
Should Liverpool avoid defeat in Amsterdam on Wednesday evening, they will qualify for the Champions League knockout phase with a game to spare — a situation that barely seemed conceivable on matchday one, when they were eviscerated 4-1 by Napoli in Italy.
That defeat was one of four Liverpool have suffered on the road in seven trips so far, the latest being a 1-0 loss at Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
