The PSG prepares to conquer England. The capital club qualified after a strong performance against Chelsea (8-2 aggregate score) on Tuesday, March 17. They awaited to know their opponent in the Champions League quarter-finals. The suspense is over, and it will be Liverpool. Liverpool managed to eliminate Galatasaray, despite being one goal down in the first leg in Istanbul. The Reds turned the tide at Anfield with a 4-0 victory in the second leg.
This will be Paris Saint-Germain’s fifth time in the direct elimination phase of the Champions League since 2025. With a strong attack and improved gameplay against Chelsea, coached by Luis Enrique, the Parisians go into the double confrontation as favorites, aiming to reach the semi-finals.
Since their elimination in a penalty shootout against PSG last year, Mohamed Salah’s teammates have struggled, with their manager Arne Slot finding it challenging to keep the team together, despite significant signings like Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, and Alexander Isak (who is injured). Without the shining performances of Hungarian midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai, the team would be lower than their current 5th place in the Premier League.
The first leg of the quarter-finals will take place at the Parc des Princes on April 7th or 8th, followed by the return leg at Anfield on April 14th or 15th.
