Former Chelsea man, Chris Sutton has predicted the outcome of the Champions League round of sixteen clash between Real Madrid and Liverpool.
According to him, there is no chance of Jurgen Klopp’s side progressing to the next round of the competition.
The draw conducted on Monday handed Liverpool another difficult night in the Champions League as the Reds take on holders Madrid in February.
The two European giants will be coming together once again after the Reds lost May’s final in Paris.
And Sutton is of the opinion that advantage will see Madrid progress to the last-eight, unlike Liverpool.
“Manchester City are favourites to win this tie, but anyone who says it is a foregone conclusion is doing a disservice to RB Leipzig.
“They are a talented team — one that beat City 2-1 in the Champions League group stages last season,” said Sutton.
“I’m predicting Tottenham [beat Inter Milan and] go through but not without plenty of drama
“I’m backing Chelsea to win [against Dortmund.”
