Liverpool are heavy favourites to progress to the Champions League semi-finals when they welcome Benfica to Anfield on Wednesday night.
The Reds triumphed 3-1 in the first-leg of this quarter-final tie, with goals from Ibrahima Konate, Sadio Mane and Luis Diaz giving Jurgen Klopp a perfect night in Lisbon.

Liverpool team news
The Reds are in tremendous shape heading into this crunch clash, with no notable injuries to speak of.
This was evidenced by the fact that they were able to leave Roberto Firmino, Naby Keita and Luis Diaz on the bench this weekend, while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Divock Origi did not even make the squad.
Klopp will likely want to manage his side carefully against Benfica with a tougher test against City to come just a few days after.
Benfica team news
Brazilian pair Lucas Verissimo and Rodrigo Pinho failed fitness tests ahead of the first leg and they also worryingly missed the victory over Belenense on Saturday.
Haris Seferovic has shaken off a knock to make the bench in Benfica's last two games and could make a substitute appearance here. Otherwise, the Eagles have a full-strength side to choose from.
Benfica predicted lineup (4-4-2): Vlachodimos; Gilberto, Vertonghen, Otamendi, Grimaldo; Goncalves, Weigl, Taarabt, Everton; Ramos, Nunez
Liverpool vs Benfica score prediction
Benfica did not show a huge amount in the first leg to suggest they can spring a surprise. Things will be even tougher for the Portuguese side at Anfield too.
Liverpool's full-strength squad means that even if Jurgen Klopp does opt to rotate, the Reds will still be able to put out an excellent starting XI that should easily swat away their opponents.
We expect Klopp's charges to sail into the final four.
Prediction: Liverpool 3-1 Benfica
