The compositions are out! PSG faces Liverpool this Wednesday evening in the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League, and we now know the two starting eleven.
On the Parisian side, we start with the expected formation, given the absences of Fabian Ruiz and Bradley Barcola. Warren Zaire-Emery thus forms the midfield alongside Vitinha and Joao Neves. In attack, we unsurprisingly find Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué as well as Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
PSG: Safonov – Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Nuno Mendes – Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, J. Neves – D. Doué, O. Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia.
No Salah against Nuno Mendes
On the Liverpool side, on the other hand, Arne Slot had a little surprise in store. Muzzled by Nuno Mendes during the double confrontation between the two clubs last season, Mohamed Salah is a substitute.
The Egyptian striker, very disappointing since the start of the season, leaves his place on the right flank to Jérémie Frimpong. Nuno Mendes will thus have a professional defender facing him, who certainly has a very offensive register.
Liverpool: Mamardashvili – Gomez, Konaté, Van Dijk, Kerkez – Gravenberch, Mac Allister – Frimpong, Szoboszlai, Wirtz –Ekitiké.
