Wednesday night sees Liverpool face Barcelona at Camp Nou in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final.

The Reds are hoping to reach their second final in a row, while the Blaugrana are seeking their fourth triumph in the competition in the last 10 years.

Luis Suarez is a player that knows Liverpool very well, having joined the Anfield outfit in 2011 from Ajax before upping sticks for Barcelona in 2014, where he continues to ply his trade today.
