Liverpool vs PSG: Pre-match stats
Mar 11, 2025
Liverpool will host PSG in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League last-16 tie at Anfield on Wednesday. Arne Slot's side somehow escaped the Parc des Princes last week with a 1-0 win, courtesy of an 87th-minute winner scored by substitute Harvey Elliot, as a wasteful PSG failed to find the net from any of their 27 attempted shots. Here The Daily Star presents you with a few highlights of the second leg of the tie:
*This will be just the fourth Champions League meeting between Liverpool and PSG.
*They previously played each other in the 2018-19 group-stage, with the Reds winning 3-2 at home and losing 2-1 away, prior to their meeting in the last-16 first leg in the ongoing edition last week which The Reds won 1-0.
*PSG have lost on their two previous visits to Anfield (in 1997 and 2018).
*Salah has played more games against PSG without scoring than against any other opponent in the Champions League (three).
*The Egyptian has 54 goal contributions (32 goals, 22 assists) in all competitions this term -- the most by any player in Europe's top five leagues.
*Liverpool had just two shots, collectively worth 0.27 expected goals (xG) in the first leg in Paris; it was their fewest goal attempts on record in a knockout game in this competition.
*In the first leg, Salah failed to attempt a shot for just the second time as a Liverpool player in the Champions League, following a blank against Real Madrid in March 2023.
