Liverpool

Arne Slot’s side will be relying on the magic of Anfield Road to overturn a tie that has become an uphill struggle, having lost by two goals a week ago at the Parc des Princes. PSG proved superior and reflected that on the scoreboard, so the Reds have no choice but to go all out with the support of their fans.

In this regard, changes are expected in the line-up presented by the Dutch manager. In Paris, he played with a five-man defence and with Salah on the bench. In this clash, with Anfield Road packed to the rafters, he is expected to revert to a back four and to start Mohamed Salah in search of a magical night in the year of his farewell from Liverpool.

PSG

PSG, for their part, go into the match with a two-goal lead and a rest under their belts. Ligue 1 postponed their weekend fixture, meaning Luis Enrique’s side have been able to recover from the first leg and prepare thoroughly for the trip to Anfield Road. Despite the two-goal lead, the Parisians know they cannot afford to relax at one of the most intense stadiums in Europe.

Given the team’s performance at the Parc des Princes a week ago, no changes are expected in the line-up presented by the Spanish manager. Apart from Barcola and Fabián Ruiz, Luis Enrique has no absences among his key players, so he will not rest anyone or take any risks. He knows that his side are currently the better team and that they must go all out for the win to avoid giving Liverpool a boost, as they can be very dangerous if they score the first goal.

Liverpool - PSG: statistics

Liverpool are achieving their best results at Anfield Road. This is demonstrated by the fact that they have only lost to Manchester City in their last ten home matches, and in every match they have won, they have done so by a margin of three goals or more. But PSG are in great form.

Luis Enrique’s side have won their last five matches, and all season they have lost only two matches by a two-goal margin; none by three.

Liverpool - PSG: predictions

Liverpool are expected to come out all guns blazing in search of the goal that will put them in the next round. Last year, PSG found themselves in a similar situation in Birmingham and struggled against Aston Villa. The key will be seeing who scores the first goal, as if it is the home side, the atmosphere at Anfield Road could carry them to victory. For that reason, and although PSG are strong favourites to reach the Champions League semi-finals, Liverpool are capable of winning the match.
