Klopp’s side must beat Huddersfield to keep their title dreams alive
While the Reds are on the hunt for their first title in 29 years and simply cannot afford to drop points at Anfield.

The Terriers have won a total of 31 of the 78 fixtures between the sides, with Liverpool winning 30 and the pair drawing on 17 occasions.

“We had enough time to recover after the last game, we have enough time to recover for the next game. Barcelona has nothing to do with the game on Friday night.”
