Liverpool struggling in absence of midfield lynchpin Jordan Henderson

One defeat against Atletico Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 tie at the Wanda Metropolitana has derailed Liveprools's momentum to an extent.

The Reds who were simply cruising past every opponent in the Premier League were suddenly halted by Diego Simeone’s men.

The narrow defeat in Madrid proved to be detrimental for Jurgen Klopp’s side as their form took a major dip after that. In the very next game in the Premier League, they came back from behind to register a narrow win over West Ham United, but lost the succeeding game 3-0 against Watford.
