Liverpool have won all six of their League Phase games so far, sitting pretty at the top of the table. To confirm their spot in the top eight of the table, which guarantees a spot in the last 16 without going through the playoff round, they need a point against French upstarts Lille on Tuesday.

Goals from Mohamed Salah and Harvey Elliott gave Liverpool a 2-1 win over Lille and secured progress to the UEFA Champions League Round of 16.

HARVEY ELLIOTT’S FIRST Champions League goal in over two years secured a seventh successive Champions League victory for Liverpool, but the guarantee of top spot was frustratingly denied them by a late Barcelona goal in Lisbon.
