On the task of facing Liverpool and their strategy for the first leg, which ends at Anfield on February 6, Postecoglou said: “We have an opponent who has stood out this year in all competitions.
“No matter how you play, you realize there is a second leg to play, but that won’t change our approach for tomorrow. We’re at home and when it comes to a two-legged competition, if you can get an advantage in your home game it sets you up pretty well, that’s what we’ll try to do
.
“It’s a high-level team. They’re really set up, I think they’ve got pretty much everyone fit and healthy. They can alternate the players so that they are in a good period and it will be a great challenge for us. »
