Liverpool will be looking to overturn a 2-0 deficit on Tuesday night when they host Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield for the second leg of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.

The six-time winners will have to pour all their energy into their home turf against the dominant defending champions to secure a spot in the semifinals, after allowing Desire Doue’s first-half strike and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s second-half goal to hand PSG the advantage at the Parc des Princes last Wednesday.

Liverpool did not manage a single shot on target in the opening half amid a commanding display from PSG – the first time they have failed to do so in the Champions League since facing Real Madrid in the 2020-21 quarterfinals.

But Arne Slot’s charges could still blow that Parisian lead if they dominate on home soil, needing three goals to flip the script.

They are buoyed by the fact that at least they fought well over the weekend, and that loss was neutralized by their 2-0 league win over Fulham on Saturday, where Mohamed Salah finally found the back of the net for the first time since November 2025, alongside Rio Ngumoha.

As for Luis Enrique’s men, they had the entire weekend to prepare for this second-round showdown, since they were exempt from their Ligue 1 fixture against Lens.

So they will come into this clash looking to hold firm and see if they can grab a third goal or just preserve the two-goal cushion and carry themselves through to the semis.

Liverpool vs PSG Prediction and betting tips

Home and away against French clubs, Liverpool have won 21 matches, lost 13, and drawn three.

None of those 37 fixtures ended in a goalless draw. In 18 Anfield meetings with French opposition, Liverpool have won 14, lost three (v Marseille in 2008, Lyon in 2009, and PSG in 2025), and drawn one.

PSG are looking to become the ninth different club to successfully retain the European Cup/Champions League trophy, after Real Madrid, Benfica, Internazionale, Ajax, Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Nottingham Forest, and AC Milan.

PSG come into this match either to maintain their 2-0 lead, and they might adopt a defensive mindset – which puts them in a great position to hit on the counter, something they excel at. That makes them the stronger side to back for the win.

But Liverpool, buoyed by being at home, will fight until the last minute to frustrate the visitors, so we cannot count them out either as this has all the makings of a thriller.
