It is never easy to have its full workforce, or almost, at this stage of the season. Paris Saint-Germain is well placed to find out, after having known many medical soap operas in recent weeks before major deadlines in the Champions League.

One week before the round of 16 C1 between PSG and Liverpool, everything is fine for the two clubs. On the Parisian side, before the quarterfinals of the Coupe de France against Saint-Brieuc this Wednesday, there are some small concerns concerning Fabian Ruiz, Warren Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha or Lee Kang-in. But there is nothing, a priori, which would be likely to question their availability against the Reds.

A Liverpool player absent for several weeks

On the English side, we play this last match this Wednesday before going to the Parc des Princes in a week. Liverpool welcomes Newcastle on behalf of the 27th day of the Premier League, and will not play this weekend, devoted to FA Cup. This is the only competition where the Arne Slot team is no longer in the running.

Before Newcastle, the Dutch coach has also taken stock of his group's health, and he gave bad news about Conor Bradley. “He will be absent for a few weeks. I cannot specify how much time exactly, but it is a muscle injury, and it will take a while before it is back ”said Arne Slot at a press conference.

The young North Irish international is the lining of Trent Alexander-Arnold as a right side. He often relays him during the meeting, to bring more defensive solidity. In this position, Arne Slot is also deprived of Joe Gomez (operated on a thigh injury) and it is therefore the axial Jarell Quansah which is the right -of -right rescue solution for the Reds.
