Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has fired a complacency warning to his players ahead of their Champions League second leg against Liverpool.
Los Blancos hold a three-goal advantage going into Wednesday's last-16 encounter. Vinicius Jr and Karim Benzema were on target with braces in the reverse fixture at Anfield as they hit the Reds for five in a 5-2 win.
Since their chastening defeat, Jurgen Klopp's side have had mixed results in the Premier League. They dropped points at Crystal Palace and Bournemouth but picked up important wins over Wolves and in the 7-0 humiliation of fierce rivals Manchester United.

The Reds travel to the Spanish capital looking to add a new chapter in their history of famous European comebacks. They will be up against it at the Bernabeu and the Italian tactician has issued a reminder to his players.
"We have had the experience of last year against Chelsea," he told reporters on Saturday following his side's 3-1 win over Espanyol.
"We had a three-goal advantage, that is why we are and were favourites, but the other fact is that we have to play another 90 minutes.
"To do that, we have to play with the same attitude as the first leg. We have the advantage, but we can't think of managing the game and the result that we had, we have to play 90 minutes at the top."
