PSG Head to Anfield With 2–0 Lead as Salah Named on Liverpool Bench

Liverpool target a fast start at Anfield to keep the quarter-final alive.

Overview

  • The official team sheets released Tuesday list Mohamed Salah as a substitute for Liverpool, while PSG start a full‑strength 4-3-3 with Matvey Safonov in goal.
  • PSG carry a 2-0 first‑leg advantage, so Liverpool must score at least two to force extra time under the no‑away‑goals format.
  • Luis Enrique called the return leg a trap and warned his side to expect difficult spells, as Arne Slot vowed to take risks, press high and hunt an early goal.
  • Bradley Barcola returns to the PSG squad after injury, and Fabián Ruiz remains out, shaping Luis Enrique’s options on the flanks and in midfield.
  • PSG’s defense has been solid in Ligue 1 but has allowed 11 goals in eight Champions League games, a weakness observers say Anfield’s intensity could expose.
