AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti has stated that a goal by his side will wreck Liverpool’s tactical plan, leaving them exposed: "Liverpool are a team that denies you space to play in," said Ancelotti. "But that is not to say that we have to spend the entire game on the attack.

"We could end up scoring a goal after just three minutes. That will force Liverpool to betray their principles and leave themselves exposed."

"Liverpool base their game a great deal upon what their opponents are like.

"And they changed their style when they faced Juventus, playing with a three-man defence.

"I’ll tell you what we should not do, and that is to worry about them. My players do not seem tired, neither in training nor in their practice matches."
