According to TNT Sports, two of Villa's coaches, including assistant Pako Ayestaran, were sent to the stands at half-time - after a dispute in the tunnel.

Same as the first half, it's mostly Leverkusen on the ball. Their nickname has been 'Neverkusen' for years because they rarely win anything - but that's about to change.

Still some sloppiness in Liverpool's passing. Another rushed clearance goes straight out of play with Andy Robertson unable to keep it in.

I said he'd give them five or 10 minutes in the second half to get themselves back into this game but he didn't give them that opportunity he feels that he wants to get back into it immediately.

Something needed to change.

Dominik Szoboszlai almost tees up Darwin Nunez but it's well caught by the goalkeeper.

Atalanta go up the other end but the attack breaks down.

Dominik Szoboszlai, Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson have all come on for Liverpool at half-time.

Jurgen Klopp isn't messing around.

Harvey Elliott, Curtis Jones and Kostas Tsimikas are the ones replaced.

Getting back under way in all three matches involving the English sides.

Jurgen Klopp certainly has some BIG players on the bench.

Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dominik Szoboszlai and Luis Diaz are all there ready and waiting.

The goal was an absolute gift, but whilst Villa have still threatened, the best subsequent chances have all gone to Lille.

Emiliano Martinez on three occasions denied a different navy blue shirt from close range.

Unai Emery’s side are yet to lose when scoring first here at home this season. They have a record of 14 wins and one draw.

Jurgen Klopp won't panic. Normally he doesn't make wholesale changes at half-time, he gives those players an opportunity to correct what they did wrong in the first half.

But he does have big players who he can brig on should he need to change it.

Paul: Another dire performance from Liverpool. Picked up from where they left off at the weekend. Some of these fringe players should be looking at that bench and realise they are playing for their positions!

Gee: The man-marking and continued fouling by Atalanta is stopping Liverpool getting any fluidity. Klopp will tear them apart at half time and they’ll win 3-1.

Ciaran: This Liverpool team look tired and disjointed. Time for the returning Alisson, Trent and Jota to come straight back in.

Half-time in the other Europa League quarter-finals and those two early goals from Gianluca Mancini and Rafa Silva have been unanswered.

This is how things stand at the moment:

Benfica 1-0 Marseille

AC Milan 0-1 Roma

It's sloppy from Konate and he gives the ball away but Kelleher comes up trumps and saves a big opportunity.

It could have been 2-0 at half-time and luckily for Liverpool they only go in at 1-0.

So far, so good for Villa thanks to Ollie Watkins' goal - although Lille have had chances.

Jurgen Klopp sprints down the tunnel as the whistle goes for half-time at Anfield.

To be blunt, Liverpool have been poor. Atalanta lead in Merseyside.

Good scoreline for West Ham at the end of a half where they're been largely outplayed.

Making up for his earlier error.

Teun Koopmeiners is completely unmarked down the right-hand side. Kostas Tsimikas has gone wondering.

Koopmeiners is one-on-one with Caoimhin Kelleher and the Liverpool goalkeeper pulls off a very important save.

Liverpool give the ball away again inside their own half. Teun Koopmeiners has it in the box but his backheel doesn't come off.

Michael: RE Andy 20:27 Past pedigree doesn't win you matches, the performance on the day does. And today Liverpool have been scruffy.

Willem: Quite a different level compared to yesterday's matches..

Matteo Ruggeri robs Liverpool of possession on the left-hand side and Alexis Mac Allister has to concede a corner.

We've got a few minutes left of the first half.
