Actually, both teams are also aware of their strengths and weaknesses so that they will continue to be exploited in the upcoming match. However, because Liverpool will be the host, of course Liverpool has more energy to be able to win in front of their own fans, especially since this is the Champions League where Liverpool generally has more experience than Leverkusen. Although Leverkusen will also make a bigger evaluation before the match starts so as not to lose badly at Liverpool's home.
The difference in performance is very visible between the two teams, Liverpool has been consistent since the start of the season, while Leverkusen is still struggling to find its best performance as shown last season. One of Liverpool advantages is playing in front of their own supporters, of course the Anfield atmosphere will increase the passion of Liverpool players to achieve a fourth consecutive victory in the UCL this season. I have confidence that Liverpool will win because since being coached by Arne Slot they have been very difficult to beat, especially since Leverkusen's defense has been very fragile lately.
