The switch means Liverpool 's Premier League game at Newcastle United, originally scheduled for Sunday, May 5, will almost certainly be moved with Saturday the likely date and 7.45pm the expected kick-off time, although that has yet to be finalised.

In the other semi-final, Tottenham Hotspur host Ajax on Tuesday, April 30 before travelling to Amsterdam on Wednesday, May 8.

This is the 11 time Liverpool have progressed to the European Cup semi-final having won eight of their previous 10.

And they have never been eliminated by Barcelona in three past meetings in the knockout stages of European competition.
