Predicted 4-3-3 Liverpool XI to face PSG in the Champions League

Liverpool romped home with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Watford in the Premier League on Saturday and maintained the pressure on Manchester City at the top of the table.

The Reds suffered a shock 2-0 defeat at the hands of Red Star Belgrade away from home in the Champions League before the international break and Jurgen Klopp’s men will be under pressure to come away with three points when they make the trip to France to face Paris Saint Germain on Wednesday.

Liverpool won the reverse fixture 3-2 against PSG at Anfield on Matchday 1 but they will be up against it when they face the French champions away from home.

Team News

Joe Gomez did not play in the last game but he is expected to start, having recovered from his minor ankle injury. Jordan Henderson was sent off in the Premier League on Saturday but will be available for selection on Wednesday.

Adam Lallana and Alex Oxland-Chamberlain are ruled out with injuries. Jurgen Klopp will be expected to return to his preferred 4-3-3 formation in the Champions League.

Formation: 4-3-3

Manager: Jurgen Klopp

Predicted XI

1. Alisson (GK)

Made a sharp save to deny Roberto Pereyra in the last game and has always been a reliable presence between the sticks.

2. Trent Alexander-Arnold (RB)

The youngster will be in high spirits after scoring from a delightful free-kick in the last Premier League outing.

3. Joe Gomez (CB)

The Englishman is expected to return to the starting eleven in place of Dejan Lovren.

4. Virgil van Dijk (CB)

The Dutchman’s towering presence at the back has added a lot of stability to Liverpool’s backline this season and he will have his work cut out against a potent PSG attack.

5. Andrew Robertson (LB)

The Scotsman put in an impressive performance in the last game and a lot will depend on how he copes with the threat of Kylian Mbappe on Wednesday.

6. Fabinho (CM)

The Brazilian has looked calm and comfortable in possession and has excelled with his distribution in midfield.

7. Georginio Wijnaldum (RCM)

He wasn’t at his best in the last game but has been a reliable presence in central midfield for Liverpool.

8. James Milner (LCM)

The former English international is Liverpool’s midfield engine and he will need to be at the top of his game if the Reds are to come away with three points.

9. Sadio Mane (LW)

The Senegalese international has always been a lively presence in the final third, tormenting the defenders with his pace and dribbling.

10. Mohamed Salah (RW)

He has shown signs of getting back to his very best in recent weeks and will be high on confidence after finding the net against Watford.
