Liverpool will entertain Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield this Tuesday night as they look to secure a good result at home in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League quarterfinal clash. The Reds managed to secure a solid 2-0 win over Fulham recently, which should give them some confidence about overturning the 2-0 first-leg deficit against PSG in midweek.
Arne Slot will set his side up in a 4-2-3-1 formation and is expected to make a few changes to his first team for this game. Alexis Mac Allister, Hugo Ekitike and Milos Kerkez could all play from the start of this clash.
4-2-3-1 Liverpool Predicted Lineup To Face Paris Saint-Germain
Defence
Giorgi Mamardashvili will operate in between the sticks for the Reds after conceding two goals in his last outing. Ibrahima Konate will function alongside Virgil Van Dijk at the heart of the Liverpool backline as they look to keep a good shape on the defensive end of the field.
Dominik Szoboszlai will try to catch the eye as the right-back, while Milos Kerkez hopes to prove his worth on the other side as the left-back. Both of them will get the freedom to go forward and express themselves inside the opponent’s half.
Joe Gomez and Andy Robertson will offer cover for the defensive positions on the bench.
Midfield
Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch will anchor the midfield for the Merseyside giants as they look to win the 50-50 battles at the centre of the park.
The talented trio of Rio Ngumoha, Florian Wirtz and Mohamed Salah will play just ahead of them as part of the Liverpool attack. All three of them need to be at their best if the Reds are to secure a convincing win this Tuesday night.
Cody Gakpo, Trey Nyoni and Jeremie Frimpong will be named on the bench as they wait for their chance to influence the game in the second 45 minutes if required.
Attack
Hugo Ekitike will spearhead Liverpool‘s attack up top. He has to find a way to be a real menace in the final third.
Alexander Isak will have to settle for a place on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the final quarter if the Reds are in need of a goal by then.
