Liverpool host Real Madrid at Anfield on Tuesday in a massive UEFA Champions League clash between two of the most successful teams in the history of the competition.

Xabi Alonso has backed Florian Wirtz to succeed at Liverpool, saying it's "just a matter of time" before the £116 million star delivers at Anfield.

On the other side, Aston Villa has responded after a slow start to the season. The Lions went winless in their first five matches of the season, but have since responded by coming out on top in their last five, including a 1-0 victory at home against Manchester City last week. Time: 4 p.m. ET Where: Anfield (Liverpool, U.K.)
