I watched the Saprissa vs Sydney game and one detail that sprung to my attention was the aggression of the Saprissa team. This could pose a physical problem to the Liverpool team suffering from jet lag.
But Liverpool are in good form and will most certainly start the match as favorites to progress.
However, the "smaller" teams like Saprissa and Al Ittihad will be more motivated than usual when they play the "bigger" clubs, Liverpool and Sao Paolo.
One thing for sure, Liverpool won't have it too easy. The European champions will have to fight hard to earn their spot in the finals.
Personally, I hope Liverpool wins. Go Reds!
