How to watch the game where you are
Reporter's view : Roma will be out to disprove the cliche that lightning does not strike twice in the same place. The 3-0 win that eliminated Barcelona in the last round was a bolt from the blue, and they need another at the Stadio Olimpico to overturn Liverpool's 5-2 lead. The belief in the city is surprisingly high for such a mammoth undertaking, given recent precedent, and storm clouds are indeed forecast to move in.
Possible line-ups
Roma: Alisson; Florenzi, Manolas, Fazio, Kolarov; Nainggolan, De Rossi, Pellegrini; Schick, Džeko, El Shaarawy
Out: Karsdorp (knee), Defrel (knee), Perotti (ankle), Strootman (ribs)
Liverpool: Karius; Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Van Dijk, Robertson; Wijnaldum, Henderson, Milner; Salah, Firmino, Mané
Out: Matip (thigh), Oxlade-Chamberlain (knee), Can (back), Gomez (ankle)

Eusebio Di Francesco, Roma coach
We've got to want this comeback and give it everything – we've got to do something truly great. [We must have] belief and with this mentality, with these fans and this passion around the team, try to perform another miracle – and saying miracle is perfectly fine. I'm glad we've got this far, but I'm never one to settle for that. Our ambition should be to get to Kyiv.
Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool manager
We are here to fight for our dreams. A lot of people might think Roma have only to win 3-0, but that's quite a result. We'll be there as well – we won't stay in the dressing room! This is what you want, to play with big stakes and for big things. The story of Liverpool in Rome is great, but nobody thinks it helps a lot that our grandfathers won here. It's just a game in a wonderful stadium, in a wonderful city, against a very strong side. If you really want to win, you have to accept that you could lose. You've got to be really brave. Watch
