Liverpool skipper Jordan HendersonWith the Champions League returning next week for the fifth round of group matches, former Premier League champions Liverpool have already secured their place in the last-16 stage and fans will have high hopes of a seventh European title.
The Reds have won all four Group B matches, scoring 13 and conceding five in victories over AC Milan, Porto and Atletico Madrid (twice), and they are 8/13 to lift the trophy at The Krestovsky Stadium in Saint Petersburg next year.
Egypt international Mohamed Salah has been in fine form, scoring five goals in the competition, and he can be backed at 8/11 to find the back of the net anytime in Liverpool's next Champions League clash at home to Porto on 24th November.
Trio's progress also secured
Along with Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Juventus and Ajax have also sealed a place in the last 16 with two games to spare, with the German champions 12121/1 to be crowned European champions for the seventh time in their history.
The Bavarians boast a perfect record in Group E, beating Barcelona, Dynamo Kiev and Benfica (twice), and they are the leading scorers with 17, two ahead of nearest rivals Manchester City.
