PSG team overview

PSG have been a dominant force in France, but they finally fulfilled their major goal of winning the Champions League trophy last year. This season, while they are in the top spot in Ligue 1, the general impression is that they are not as dominant as in previous years and are much more beatable. However, many football experts, whom we also believe, hold the view that they are simply managing their form and are trying to be at their best in the final part of the season. With four straight wins and 15 scored goals, it really seems they are only getting better.

Coach Luis Enrique rested some key players in the previous game and still got a 3:1 win over Toulouse. Nuno Mendes, Vitinha, and Joao Neves all played only a half, while Khvicha Kvaratskhelia played a little over an hour. After the game, coach Enrique was very happy with a win, saying: We knew how important these three points were, especially as this match came after the international break."

For the upcoming match, Senny Mayulu, Fabian Ruiz, and Bradley Barcola should remain sidelined with their injuries.

Liverpool

Liverpool team overview

Liverpool won the Premier League title in Arne Slot's second season as a head coach. When everyone expected a strong season, the Reds disappointed completely, at least by their standards. They are in 5th place in the Premier League, five points behind 4th-placed Aston Villa. They were embarrassed by Manchester City in the FA Cup and had already been eliminated from the EFL Cup. So, their only chance of saving the season will be through the Champions League. 

After a 4:0 loss to Manchester City, coach Arne Slot spoke to the media. He was very disappointed with both the result and the way his team collapsed. The coach said they really struggled with finishing and with failing to convert chances when they started playing well. Slot eventually called the team to request a response and to show much more fighting spirit in the upcoming games. 

For the upcoming game, Liverpool should have no new injuries, but the players who missed the previous matches should remain sidelined - Stefan Bajcetic, Conor Bradley, Wataru Endo, Giovanni Leoni, Alexander Isak, and Alisson.

Prediction

PSG won four in a row while being superb offensively, with 15 goals scored. They are obviously in great form, and it seems they are only improving. Also, in the previous CL round, PSG trashed Chelsea with an 8:2 aggregate. And we can safely say that Chelsea is on a par with Liverpool this season. 

Liverpool are coming into this game after their worst performance of the season. They lost 4:0 to Manchester City in the FA Cup and looked really bad at times. Moreover, Liverpool won only once (against Galatasaray) in the past five matches. Additionally, on the road, the Reds lost three in a row and four of the past five.

Considering all the above, we believe that PSG should win this Champions League clash at Parc des Princes.

3 Reasons why PSG should win

  1. PSG won four in a row
  2. Liverpool lost 4:0 to Manchester City in the previous game
  3. Liverpool lost four of the past five road games
