Group E is the most unpredictable group of all in these qualifications. Excluding Maribor who lost all chances to qualify for the next round in any of two competitions, other three teams are more or less with equal chances to finish on any of the first three places. With only three points between first placed Liverpool and third placed Spartak Moscow, anything can happen and therefore this match, Liverpool vs Spartak Moscow, will be one of the most interesting of all in this round. Both teams have much to lose if they fail to win and lots to gain if they win. Therefore neither of them will risk too much in this match, but since both teams require victory to secure themselves, at one point both teams will have to open their cards and play for all in.
When it comes to their mutual encounters, two teams played draw in their last match, earlier in this competition, and in two matches they played before, back in 2002, Liverpool won both times. In this match, statistically there will be no actual favorite to win, however according to current form and recent performances, Liverpool are entering this match with much better chances.
