Paris Saint-Germain vs Liverpool Preview

Paris Saint-Germain vs Liverpool

Competition – Champions League

Stadium: Parc des Princes

Date: 8th April 2026

Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT

Paris Saint-Germain host Liverpool at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday evening in the first leg of a Champions League quarter-final that is a genuine rematch of their 2025 last-16 tie.

PSG head into this first leg in outstanding form across all competitions. Their most recent result was a 3-1 home win over Toulouse in Ligue 1 on April 3. Prior to that, they won 4-0 away at Nice on March 21. Earlier in this run, a 3-0 win away at Chelsea in the Champions League second leg, a 5-2 home win over Chelsea in the first leg, and a 3-1 home defeat to AS Monaco in the league complete a sequence of four wins and one loss — a side that has been devastating in Europe while briefly stumbling domestically. With 34 goals scored in the Champions League, a goal difference of +17 and 17 conceded, PSG’s European form is formidable, and the Parc des Princes represents a daunting challenge for any visiting side.

Liverpool travel to Paris having lost their last two outings and three of their last five across all competitions. Their most recent result was a 4-0 defeat away at Manchester City in the FA Cup on April 4 — a result that ended their domestic cup run. Prior to that, they lost 2-1 away at Brighton & Hove Albion in the league on March 21. Earlier in this run, a 4-0 home win over Galatasaray in the Champions League second leg, a 1-1 home draw with Tottenham, and a 1-0 defeat away at Galatasaray in the CL first leg complete a picture of a side capable of big European nights at home but carrying form concerns ahead of a first leg away from Anfield. Liverpool’s defensive numbers in the Champions League are exceptional — just 9 conceded and a goal difference of +15 — suggesting their European campaign has been tightly disciplined even if their domestic form has faltered.

The head-to-head record over the last four meetings is perfectly level — two wins each and no draws. Most recently, PSG won 1-0 away at Liverpool in March 2025 in the Champions League, while Liverpool won 1-0 away at PSG in the previous leg of the same tie in March 2025. PSG also won 2-1 at home against Liverpool in November 2018, while Liverpool won 3-2 at home in September 2018.
