A slight opening for Atletico for the first time as Renan Lodi wins the ball high up the pitch but then he can't find a red and white shirt with his pass into the box.

Stone on Stones for you there.

Pep Guardiola is doing a lot of pointing this evening.

He was particularly forceful when he tried to explain something to John Stones.

It seemed to be along the lines of 'when the ball goes out wide, you need to step up'.

Stones was certainly paying attention.

City work a short corner with Ilkay Gundogan ending up striking over from range.

Should have put it in the mixer.

Ibrahima Konate doesn't know what it is like to lose as a Liverpool player with his previous 19 games for the club ending without defeat.

There's another free header, this time for Naby Keita but he puts it too close to the goalkeeper.

Relentless from Liverpool as they look to get this tie wrapped up nice and quickly.

James: Penalty on Bernardo if you ask me.

20 minutes gone and City have had all the possession but are yet to force Jan Oblak into a testing save.

Sharp goalkeeping from Jan Oblak.

The Atletico number one spots the danger and is quickly off his line to smother the ball from Riyad Mahrez's cross.

Ilkay Gundogan was sniffing around.

Jan Vertonghen gets in the way of Naby Keita's shot inside the box before Thiago sends the ball from the rebound well over.

Still, all Liverpool at the moment and it feels like a goal is coming.

Liverpool are seeing most of the ball here. Benfica are sitting very deep and looking to play on the counter.

City are finding pockets of spaces in between the Atletico defence and midfield.

Raheem Sterling is getting a bit of joy down the left.

Liverpool keep on coming forward as Naby Keita and Trent Alexander-Arnold both test Odysseas Vlachodimos with stinging efforts in quick succession.

Benfica then try to break quickly but Liverpool are back in shape quickly to deal with the danger.

I think Manchester City will fancy themselves from set-pieces, so that might be another avenue for them.

The crowd come alive as Raheem Sterling makes a jinking run, past three Atletico defenders before he is brought down by Koke.

Seconds later, the Atletico skipper then has a coming together with Bernardo Silva in the box and after a check by VAR it's play on.

That was very clumsy from Koke, he did seem to hook Silva's legs from under him.

That was positive from City. They moved the ball really well. Kevin de Bruyne was on to it really quickly.

Atletico happy to sit back but City causing a few issues now.

Kevin de Bruyne finds space in the box and his drive is blocked by Sime Vrsaljko.

From the corner, Aymeric Laporte heads wide.

Liverpool are stepping up the pressure as Sadio Mane and Mo Salah combine superbly with the former's backheel sending Salah into the box but his poked effort is deflected behind by the goalkeeper's boot.

Oooh, almost for Liverpool as Andy Robertson plays the ball forward and Luis Diaz is onto it on the left before driving a low cross that just evades the reach of both Sadio Mane and Mo Salah.

Atletico spotting a weakness?

Do City have weaknesses?
