LONDON: The second leg of Liverpool’s last 16 Champions League match against RB Leipzig has been switched from Anfield to Budapest as a result of coronavirus travel restrictions, Uefa said today.
The first leg, which Liverpool won 2-0 as the away team, was also held in the Hungarian capital.
It is the latest match to be moved to a neutral venue in the Champions League and Europa League this season.
The European governing body said: “Uefa are able to officially confirm that the Champions League round of 16 second leg match between Liverpool and RB Leipzig will now be played at the Puskas Arena in Budapest.”
The date and kickoff time – March 10 at 8pm – remain unchanged.
