Arne Slot not convinced top-eight Champions League finish is advantage in league

Liverpool head coach Arne Slot does not believe a top-eight Champions League finish will give his side an advantage over their rivals in the domestic title race.

The Dutchman said apart from the boost of missing the additional knockout round and going straight into the last 16, he was not sure what other benefits were to be had.

And he suggested, after assessment at the end of the season, if it turned out there had not been a significant advantage he would consider rotating more during the extended group stage.
