Liverpool vs PSG Prediction
- Liverpool had Alisson to thank for their 1-0 win in Paris last week as the Brazilian put in an inspired display to help the Reds claim a first leg advantage.
- Arne Slot's side return to Anfield, and they should be confident about securing a spot in the quarter-finals of the Champions League given their home record this season.
- PSG quickly bounced back from their first leg loss to secure a comfortable 4-1 win over Rennes with a much-changed side as the French side showcased their strength in depth.
- The Ligue 1 side won't be overwhelmed by the Anfield atmosphere as they head to Merseyside on a 13-game away winning run.
- If Alisson puts in another inspired display this week, then Liverpool will book a place in the next round of the Champions League.
- Even so, PSG should have the firepower to get the better of the Brazilian, but it may not be enough to secure their quarter-final spot.

At the time of publishing this is a best price of 13/2 with BetMGM.
- Liverpool have been perfect at home in the Champions League this season, winning all four matches, but PSG have been in strong scoring form away from home, winning their last three Champions League away games, including a 3-0 victory over Brest.
- PSG failed to score in the first leg despite dominating with 27 shots and 1.78 expected goals (xG), but their attacking talent, led by Ousmane Dembélé and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, is likely to find the net at Anfield.
- Liverpool have conceded in their last two home games in all competitions, including against Southampton, and PSG's attacking prowess makes it likely they will score.
- Liverpool have scored in all their European games this season, and with players like Mohamed Salah in form, they are expected to contribute as well.
- Kvaratskhelia was PSG's standout player in the first leg, taking eight shots and creating numerous chances. He could have easily scored a hat-trick.
- The Georgian winger has been in excellent form and is likely to test Liverpool's defence, particularly given PSG's need to chase the game.
- Liverpool's high defensive line could leave space for Kvaratskhelia to exploit, especially on counter-attacks.
- Both teams are attack-minded and generate significant corner opportunities. PSG average 6.60 shots on target per game in the Champions League, rising to 8.0 at home, while Liverpool average six.
- PSG took 11 corners in their win over Manchester City and 14 in a draw with PSV, while Liverpool's away games in the Premier League have seen 60% of matches return at least 11 corners.
- With PSG needing to chase the game and Liverpool's counter-attacking threat, this match could see a high corner count.
