Nolito isn't sure who has the edge ahead of Tuesday's Champions League contest, but the Sevilla winger has no doubts that Liverpool will "suffer."
The two sides meet in the penultimate fixture of the group phase, with Liverpool enjoying a one-point advantage over the Spanish outfit.
Despite only managing a draw against a 10-man Liverpool side at Anfield in September, Nolito has promised that the Premier League club will have a difficult task when the two teams meet at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium.
"We have a huge game coming up," the former Manchester City winger told Cadena Ser, as translated by ESPN FC. "All the top teams are in the Champions League and Liverpool have a great side but so do we.
"Liverpool are Liverpool and I don't know if they are going to win or lose against us but I can assure you they are going to suffer."
Sevilla has yet to lose at home in the league or Champions League this season, and could book a place in the knockout round with a victory combined with Spartak Moscow dropping points against Maribor on Tuesday.
