There is no doubt that Liverpool are the most in-form team in Europe . The English team are a real steamroller and their season so far makes them a feared and almost unbeatable team . The Reds held off PSG in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16. The Parisians had 28 shots on goal without scoring. Luis Enrique's men dominated but a goal from Elliott in the 87th minute (the first shot on goal in the entire match) rewarded Liverpool's show of endurance. With this victory over Paris Saint Germain , the Merseyside team has defeated all of the major league champions from last season, except Inter.

This Liverpool team is terrifying its rivals and no team wants to get in the way of the English team. Slot 's men have beaten Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayer Leverkusen, PSG and Manchester City . All the champions of the 2023/2024 season . All the teams have bitten the dust against Pool. Guardiola 's team , even twice. And in all these matches there is another fact in common: Liverpool have kept a clean sheet in all five games.

In the two Premier League games , they have beaten the 'cityzens' with the same result: 2-0. At Anfield , Gakpo and Salah (penalty). And in the return match a few weeks ago, the result would be repeated. The Egyptian and Szoboszlai were the scorers. Pool unhinged the champion, so much so that Guardiola surrendered to Slot's team. This victory put an end to Liverpool's bad streak that had not won at the Etihad since 2015.

Leverkusen thrashed and Real Madrid solidly beaten

If the English champions were unable to stand up to Liverpool, the situation with the other champions would not be any different. This time on Champions League territory . The 'reds' dealt a resounding 4-0 to the German champions, Bayer Leverkusen . Anfield witnessed a recital by their players who only needed 45 minutes to finish off the 'die werkself' . A hat-trick from Luis Díaz and a goal from Gakpo annihilated Xabi Alonso's men . "They are capable of defending, scoring and they have a lot of arsenal in both areas of the field. They can score without having had many chances ," the San Sebastian native was full of praise.

Against the Whites, Liverpool showed why they are the best team in Europe . Real Madrid visited Anfield with many doubts, as they had had an irregular start in the Champions League and the precedent of the thrashing of Leverkusen was recent. Pool 'defeated' the current European champion with a 2-0 (goals from Mac Allister and Gakpo ). The 'reds' had accumulated 15 years without beating the Madridistas , since that March 10, 2009, when they thrashed (4-0) at Anfield to qualify for the quarter-finals.

Inter, the only champion not included in the list

The 'Pool' have beaten the champions of Spain, England, Germany and France. All four of the five major leagues. The only team that has not succumbed to the English is the Serie A champion, Inter . The 'Nerazzurri' have not crossed paths with Liverpool in the league phase. The only way for the English and Italian teams to face each other is in the event of a hypothetical final.

Not only have the team from the north-west of England beaten the best teams in Europe, but they have also ended the streaks of many of their victims - some even historic. Liverpool ended PSG's run of 22 games without defeat! Lille also said goodbye to their 21-match unbeaten streak. The thrashing of Leverkusen ended an 11-match unbeaten streak for the Germans, the same as Iraola's Bournemouth

Liverpool are aiming for everything this season. They are the most in-form team in Europe and they win games that many other teams end up losing. The 'Pool' is a steamroller that runs over its rivals and has one of the best squads in the world. Slot alluded to the ' luck ' factor in the last match against PSG . " To win the Premier or the Champions League, you need to have a bit of luck when you are not able to show all your football ." Whether it is luck or not, Liverpool is sowing fear throughout Europe.
