Liverpool host Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield with looking to protect their one goal advantage and advance to the Champions League quarterfinals.
The Reds were outplayed unlike any other time this season; however, a record-setting performance by Alisson and a late out-of-nowhere goal from Harvey Elliot saw them escape the Parc des Princes with a 1–0 win.
Anfield on a big European night rivals any other hostile atmosphere in the continent and Liverpool will need their home crowd against a PSG side that will come into the game confident, knowing that if they replicate their efforts from the first leg, they can pull off the upset.
Connor Bradley and Joe Gomez remain injured and there's still a question mark over Cody Gakpo's availability after a recent set-back in his recovery. Mohamed Salah will be tasked with the bulk of the attacking responsibilities. With the Premier League title within reach, Arne Slot will hope to dispatch PSG to have a similar run in the Champions League, to quickly focus on the upcoming Carabao Cup final, in the pursuit of a potential treble.
Here's how Liverpool could lineup vs. PSG on Tuesday, Mar. 11.
