Starting a season against Norwich certainly stood the Reds in good stead in 2019/20 as a 4-1 home victory over the Canaries set Klopp’s side on the way to title glory.
Trips to the city have also provided numerous happy memories for the Anfield club, with Luis Suarez a prolific scorer against the opening day opponents.
In 2016, Adam Lallana was the unlikely hero late on as Liverpool won a thriller 5-4 – sparking jubilant scenes as Klopp sprinted down the line.
Hopefully, the aforementioned fixtures will see stadiums at full capacity once again as football returns to normality.
