Former Liverpool and Everton manager Rafa Benitez has spoken about the recent Merseyside derby.
The Reds were victorious against the Toffees, winning 2-0 at home on Monday.
Benitez spoke about the importance of that win for Liverpool, given their recent struggles.
He told Onda Cero: "I saw Liverpool-Everton and I think it was very important for Liverpool because they have reconnected with the sensations.
But they have lost many pieces."
He added on Liverpool vs Real Madrid in the Champions League: "If Madrid manages to get out of the pressure by playing and finds Alexander-Arnold's back there they will hurt him.
The players who are recovering will not arrive with the rhythm of the competition."
