Sparta Prague was no stranger to two-legged victories in the 2023-24 Europa League, having been knocked out of the Champions League by Copenhagen in the preliminary rounds and having to defeat Dinamo Zagreb in the final Europa League qualifying phase to reach the group stage.
Rangers, Sparta, and Real Betis were separated by only two points in Group C, where the Czech Fortuna Liga champions finished second, setting up a daunting match against Galatasaray, who had previously taken four points from two Champions League games against Manchester United.

Sparta has only won one of its last 16 European games against English teams, and Liverpool has already broken one road curse this month, though in highly contentious situations at Nottingham Forest’s City Ground.
Jurgen Klopp’s team won their first Premier League game away to the Tricky Trees thanks to an incorrect drop-ball decision under the rules of the game. Darwin Nunez scored the winning goal in the 99th minute to keep them in control of their quadruple destiny.

Sparta Prague has not conceded more than one goal in a competitive home fixture since September, and Priske’s tenacious charges should be confident of continuing that streak against a Liverpool side that has historically struggled on the road in the Europa League. With numerous absentees and an upcoming clash with Manchester City, the Reds may be content to leave Prague with a first-leg draw before attempting to complete the job at Anfield in the return fixture.
Sparta Prague 0-3 Liverpool, predicted by us.
