Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez is confident the Reds can their season around by winning their next two games.

Liverpool face Lyon (7/2 to beat the Reds in the match betting) in the Champions League on Tuesday before Manchester United (13/8 to beat Liverpool on the Premier League coupon)
arrive at Anfield on Sunday.

Having lost their last three games in all competitions Benitez is desperate to to see his side climb out of their current slump.

“I have some experience in difficult situations – all managers do – but at this time we have lost four games and people are talking about the quality, the depth of the squad, but the main thing is to be calm, work hard and find solutions to the problem,” insisted Benitez.

“That is the only way in football. This week we have an opportunity to change everything. It can change everything for the positive.

Liverpool (16/1 to win the Champions League outright) can welcome back Steven Gerrard (11/2 to be the first goalscorer) for the game against seven-time French champions Lyon, but are still unable to call on Fernando Torres.

Javier Mascherano and Emiliano Insua are both expected to start having sat on the bench on Saturday as Liverpool try to overhaul Lyon, who are currently top of  Group E.
