Liverpool are favourites to complete an historic Premier League and Champions League double, according to former striker Peter Crouch.
The Reds made it three Champions League Group B wins out of three after Mohamed Salah's double either side of Naby Keita's strike saw them beat Atletico Madrid - who had Antoine Griezmann sent off in the second half - in the Spanish capital.
As a result, Jurgen Klopp's men - who sit just a point behind leaders Chelsea in the top flight after eight games - extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 21 games on Tuesday evening.

Mohamed Salah's double inspired the Reds to a 3-2 victory away at Atletico Madrid
Their latest victory came at the Wanda Metropolitano, the ground where they won their last European crown more than two years ago, 12 months before they would go on to claim their first league title in 30 years.
