• Liverpool have suffered back-to-back losses in their last two fixtures.

• Paris Saint-Germain are on a four-match winning run.

• Neither of the meetings between these sides have ended in a draw.

• PSG in the Champions League: D-W-D-W-W

• PSG in all competitions: L-W-W-W-W

• Liverpool in the Champions League: W-W-W-L-W

• Liverpool in all competitions: L-D-W-L-L

Team News:

• Bradley Barcola and Quentin Ndjantou are not going to be in action for Paris Saint-Germain. They are injured and are likely to return to play in mid-April 2026. Fabian Ruiz and Senny Mayulu are not yet confirmed to be a part of the squad.

• Liverpool will not have Alisson Becker, Giovanni Leoni, Stefan Bajcetic and Wataru Endo in action due to their injuries. Conor Bradley is out for the season.

Player(s) to watch:

• Ousmane Dembélé is going to be one of the main men in the attacking front for Paris Saint-Germain. He is coming in after scoring a sensational brace for his side in their previous league outing against Toulouse. Even though he has only scored two goals in the UEFA Champions League this season, Dembele is still going to play a crucial part.

• Dominik Szoboszlai has been a top performer for Liverpool in the UCL. In 10 games, he has nine goal involvements and will be eager to add more to his tally. The 25-year-old can compete in multiple positions for the Reds and will be looking to cause problems for the Parisians.
