Defending Champions League winners PSG continue their quest to secure back-to-back European championships as they hope to protect a slim aggregate lead with a trip to Anfield for their quarterfinal second leg against Liverpool.
The Parisians, who are looking to be the first back-to-back Champions League title winners since Real Madrid and their three-peat in 2018, hold a 2-0 aggregate advantage after a comprehensive victory in the French capital last week.
Goals from Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia gave PSG the aggregate lead, as they pummeled the Liverpool back line and kept the Reds quiet in attack, holding their Premier League opponents to just three total shots in the match and none on target.
If they manage to advance, it would mark the third straight season for PSG in the Champions League semifinals, while a turnaround would mean the first semifinal appearance for Liverpool since they finished runners-up in 2022.

PSG midfielder Fabian Ruiz has returned to training after missing significant time with a knee injury, but he is unlikely to start after being absent for so long. He could come off the bench to help gain fitness for the stretch run of the campaign.
Otherwise, PSG have no injuries to worry about, and Luis Enrique will have his whole squad available to him as they gear up to make a deep run in the Champions League and also battle for the Ligue 1 title.
