Liverpool chase revenge against Leverkusen

Liverpool will be looking to exact revenge after they were dumped out of the Champions League quarter-final in 2002 by Bayer Leverkusen. Leading 1-0 after the home leg, Gerard Houllier's side lost the return tie 4-2 and crashed out.

However, although the German side finished top of their group in the current campaign, they are not in the same class as the 2002 team and Liverpool could have been given a much tougher prospect.

"I think we are happy enough," said the Anfield club's chief executive Rick Parry.

"Hopefully, we can do better against Leverkusen than the last time we played them."
