Exiting Amazon Prime customers can stream the match online or through a connected TV. <\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the team news? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ryan Gravenberch returned in the 2-0 win over Aston Villa but Alexander Isak is set to be unavailable due to a groin injury that has disrupted his start to his Liverpool career. Alisson Becker remains out. <\/p>\n<p>Arne Slot made several changes to his side on Saturday &#8211; with Hugo Ekitike the only new signing named in his starting side &#8211; and the Liverpool head coach could stick with that as he looks to build some consistency. <\/p>\n<p>Trent Alexander-Arnold was an unused substitute in Real Madrid\u2019s 4-0 win over Valencia on Saturday and is not guaranteed to start having only recently returned from a hamstring injury that interrupted his first few weeks at the club. <\/p>\n<p>Real Madrid have injury problems elsewhere in defence, however, with Dani Carvajal, Antonio Rudiger and David Alaba all currently sidelined. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Possible line-ups<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Liverpool XI:<\/strong> Mamardashvili, Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai; Salah, Ekitike, Gakpo <\/p>\n<p><strong>Real Madrid XI: <\/strong>Courtois; Valverde, Militao, Huijsen, Mendy; Tchouameni, Camavinga, Guler; Bellingham, Mbappe, Vinicius Jr <\/p>\n<p>Prediction <\/p>\n<p>Liverpool turned a corner with the win over Villa, but this will really show how Slot has refined his side, particularly the midfield.
