#3 Liverpool could spring quite a few surprises in the upcoming UCL fixtures

A lethal combination!
A lethal combination!

Liverpool is one of two teams in Europe this season to not have tasted defeat yet, the other one being Barcelona. Although they havent crossed paths with a major European super-power thus far, it should not be the parameter to undermine their performance because the Champions league is highly unpredictable (ask Atletico Madrid).

Moreover, Liverpool is currently the highest scoring team, and has scored 28 times already in Europe's premier club competition. Outscoring the likes of PSG and Real Madrid. Although the loss of Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona has certainly weakened their midfield, they have coped well thus far.

With the attack trident of Salah, Firmino and Mane in the form of their lives, coupled with a decent enough defence consisting of Virgil Van Dijk and Andy Robertson, expect Liverpool to be the dark horse in this year's Champions league campaign.
