Liverpool FC

Liverpool play in the Premier League at Anfield (61,276) in Anfield, Liverpool, England.

Anfield Road runs northwest from the ground toward the terraced houses of L4. The Kop, the end behind the goal, was a standing terrace before 1994 that held 28,000. Fifty thousand people singing You’ll Never Walk Alone before a European tie, the city’s anthem turned into the club’s anthem turned into something that belongs to football generally, is an acoustic and emotional event that visitors who have experienced it describe in terms beyond sport.

Liverpool are six-time European champions. The sequence of finals tells a specific story: 1977 and 1978 under Bob Paisley, who won the competition twice in his first two attempts; 1981 and 1984 under Bob Paisley then Joe Fagan; 2005 in Istanbul, when Rafael Benitez’s team lost 3-0 at half-time to AC Milan and came back to win on penalties with three goals in six minutes, a sequence so dense with improbability that the phrase “the miracle of Istanbul” became a permanent entry in the language; and 2019, when Jurgen Klopp’s side beat Tottenham 2-0 in Madrid.

Klopp won the Champions League and the Premier League in consecutive seasons, ending a 30-year wait for the league title in 2020. His pressing system, gegenpressing, demanded athleticism and collective discipline at a pace the league had not previously seen maintained over 38 matches. Mohamed Salah scored 32 league goals in his first season (2017-18). Virgil van Dijk, signed for £75 million from Southampton in January 2018, became the most complete centre-back in European football within 18 months.

Arne Slot arrived from Feyenoord in 2024 following Klopp’s departure. Salah remains the key figure in attack. The task is to maintain Liverpool’s position in a league where the gap between the top six and the rest has compacted.

Liverpool play on GMT in winter and BST (UTC+1) in summer. A Saturday 12:30 kickoff at Anfield is 20:30 in Singapore, 07:30 in New York, and 21:30 in Seoul. Supporters in South Korea and Southeast Asia checking Liverpool time for early afternoon matches are planning very late evenings.
