Liverpool travel to Paris on Wednesday, April 8, facing a daunting Champions League quarter-final first-leg encounter against Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes. After a 1–3 defeat to Monaco in early March, Luis Enrique’s side responded decisively, reclaiming the top spot in Ligue 1 on March 21 and maintaining it since.



Their latest result, a 3–1 victory over Toulouse, showcased their control with 68% possession and allowed Enrique to rest key players ahead of the Liverpool match. With a settled squad and a high-pressing approach, PSG are likely to target Liverpool’s right side, exploiting gaps if Jeremie Frimpong is pushed forward.

The fixture also carries personal weight for Mohamed Salah, marking one of his final European nights in a Liverpool shirt following his March announcement that he will depart this June, while remaining the club’s top European performer with three goals and two assists this campaign. Luis Enrique has now confirmed his decision regarding PSG’s goalkeeper situation, signaling stability for the Parisians despite Matvey Safonov’s recent blunder against Toulouse.
