..... tonight in Kiev, whoever qualifies will advance to the group stage of the Champions League, probably worth a minimum £12m payout, to the English club.
Therefore, defeat is not really an option, it would be a major disaster. Pool hold a narrow first leg lead and are without Carragher and Riise. They endured a very eventful trip to the Ukraine, delays at both ends, were followed by a visa problem for Mark Gonzalez and a "missing" passport for Peter Crouch.
On arrival, the Israeli media put the blame on the game being played in Kiev, not on the Middle East crisis, but squarely on Rafael Benitez's shoulders. There is also plenty of bad feeling from the first game and it could be a very heated encounter.
I expect both sides to open cautiously, but the Israeli's will have to go foward eventually and leave gaps for Liverpool to exploit. The best value looks on the double result market and the draw half time- Liverpool full time option, which is priced at a general 4.50, but sure to be available at a little bigger on the exchanges.
1 point Draw-Liverpool 4.80 betfair.
Good Luck.
