Champions League - Liverpool vs Toulouse

Match of the day as really, I expect nothing less than a win against the French Ligue 1 side. While Toulouse has started picking up its form in their league, Liverpool has been nothing short of impressive as they look to slowly transform into the Valencia of old.

Remember how Valencia went to Anfield a number of seasons back and totally dominated the home side?

Now, Liverpool will be -that- Valencia!

Rafa has finally schooled the players on his playing style and tactics. You know his confidence is now sufficiently high when the emphasis is now on the attacking end. And today, with my expected return of Crouch, Toulouse will have trouble coping with the long ball assault coupled with some wing verve from Babel. Liverpool has always performed better on the European stage under Rafa's reign, and this night will be no different.

Of course, each time I predict a win for Liverpool, they decide to stink up the place.
