The big story heading into Liverpool's game against Inter Milan is the story surrounding Mohamed Salah and his future at the club. The Liverpool legend gave a scathing interview following his omission from the starting eleven in the Reds' 3-3 draw away against Leeds United, which has now provided speculation that the 34-year-old could be seeking a future away from Anfield.
As it pertains to this game, a visit to Milan would have been one of the last things Arne Slot would need, as the under-pressure Liverpool manager is undoubtedly facing his most difficult spell at the club. Liverpool this season in Europe has won three of their five matches; however, the embarrassment of the 4-1 home loss to PSV Eindhoven has ultimately done nothing to calm the increasing tension at Anfield.
Inter Milan have won their last three matches, having scored first in seven of their previous nine games. The home side have performed brilliantly in Europe this season, winning four of their five matches and losing only once to Atletico Madrid (2-1).
Will Luke Littler retain the PDC World Championship?
Luke Littler has had an astonishing rise in the last two years, as the Warrington-born 18-year-old has won major PDC Titles and has also claimed the World Number One spot, which was held by "Cool Hand" Luke Humphries. Littler heads into his third World Championships having finished runner-up to Humphries and then beating Michael van Gerwen (7-3) to become the youngest world champion in the sport at the age of 17.
Littler will have strong competition as the reigning champion, with Humphries laying down a proclamation after the defeat to Littler in the Grand Slam final, claiming he will dethrone Littler and reclaim his world crown from 2024. Other notable contenders include Michael van Gerwen, Gerwyn Price and Gary Anderson as an outside shot.
