Summary

We have a special Blood Red podcast ahead of Liverpool’s return to the Wanda Metropolitano to take on Atletico Madrid in the Champions League. Caoimhe O’Neill speaks to leading Spanish football expert and historian Sid Lowe about the last-16 first-leg tie – and much more else besides. Including: What the view is from Spain on this remarkable Liverpool team; the form of one-time reported Jurgen Klopp target Joao Felix; Diego Simeone, and whether the Atletico boss can blunt the most feared frontline in the world, and whether the Argentine will ever end up in the Premier League; Diego Costa’s chances of playing, and, of course, Sid’s prediction for the game.
