This is the Blood Red Podcast from the Liverpool Echo giving you the inside track on all the big talking points from Anfield.

Hello I'm Paul Welock and welcome to the Behind Enemy Lines podcast on the Blood Red channel.

If you're listening to this podcast for the first time, what we do is speak to a writer or fan who knows

Liverpool's next opponent inside out, who on Tuesday night happened to be Porto in the

Champions League quarter-final

first leg at Anfield. Now with the greatest respect in the world to the

Portuguese champions they were the team most Liverpool fans wanted in the last

eight. That all stems from the Red's 5-nill aggregate win over Porto in the last

16 of last season's competition. But as Peplinders has said on the eve of the match, it does mean

his former club will be out for revenge and given Porto

knock Roma out of the last round and with the most impressive team in the group stages

do Liverpool have reason to be worthy to find out I spoke to Portuguese football expert Alex Gruncalvez who is the

creator of the tuga Scout.com website he gives us the inside track on Porto the

strengths the weaknesses and why I like Liverpool with Andy Robertson they could also be without

their influential left back as well as two other big players and I also got Alex's opinion on

the Portuguese Wonder Kid who has been linked with the Reds, along with most of the leading clubs in Europe.

Enjoy and we'll be back after the match with the postgame podcast.
