Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers insists they won't lie down against Champions League opponents Real Madrid.
Few give the Reds a hope of getting anything out of the game, never mind repeating their famous 1-0 win here in 2009 - a masterclass in tactical discipline by former boss Rafael Benitez.
But Rodgers stressed there would be no conceding this game - even though the reality remains that their Group B future will be decided by the final two matches against Basel and Bulgarian minnows Ludogorets.
"We are certainly not coming here as a team expected to lose and then look at the other games as games to qualify," Rodgers said.
"For us, we see it as an opportunity. We still very much have qualification in our hands.
"It is a wonderful arena - one of the iconic football grounds in the world - and, when you come up against the best opponents, that is the challenge and what makes you perform to your best.
"They are probably the best team in the world at the moment and we really look forward to big games.
"We see them as an opportunity rather than a threat to what we are doing."
