LIVE – Liverpool v PSG: Commentary, updates, goals and stats as Reds seek Champions League comeback

Liverpool will have to stage a comeback for the ages if they want to secure a place in the semi-finals of the Champions League tonight.

The Merseysiders trail 2-0 to the defending champions from last week’s first game in Paris but are a little fortunate to still be in the tie after being comprehensively outplayed at the Parc des Princes.

Arne Slot’s side warmed up with a win over Fulham at the weekend but they will need to up their performance levels significantly against Luis Enrique’s men.

Paris Saint-Germain were given the weekend off by the French league and will arrive at Anfield feeling fresh.
