The Colchoneros arrive at this match with several key absences , such as Julián Álvarez, Cardoso, Almada, Giménez, and Baena . Liverpool , the reigning Premier League champions, have won all of their matches in the domestic competition and are one of the big favorites in this Champions League, having reinforced themselves with players such as Isak, Kerkez, Wirtz, Etikité, Frimpong, and Mamardashvili .
