Jurgen Klopp says his Liverpool side will “go to win” their Champions League quarter-final second leg at Porto, despite holding a 2-0 lead.
The Reds cruised to victory in the first leg at Anfield but the manager says his players will “fight with all they have” to reach the semi-finals.
“We are in a good moment, we want to play football and we want to fight hard,” said Klopp.
“We'll try to use the result [at Anfield] and go there confident.”
Victory will see Liverpool make the last four for the second consecutive season, but Klopp expects Porto to be a “different animal” at the Estadio do Dragao.
“They always have a high intense game in the highest intensity atmosphere,” added Klopp. “From the first kick, they will go with a clear direction.
“If we were 2-0 down and going into the home leg, would we think we were out? No way.
“That’s exactly what Porto are thinking.”
Porto will be boosted by the return of two players from suspension, with defender Pepe and midfielder Hector Herrera available again after sitting out at Anfield. (BBC)
