## Team News & Key Players

PSG will be without Senny Mayulu, Bradley Barcola, Fabián Ruiz, and Quentin Ndjantou through injury for the first leg — notable absences that could affect their width and creativity. But Khvicha Kvaratskhelia remains a massive threat. The Georgian ace has struck four goals in his last three Champions League knockout phase matches for Paris.

For Liverpool, Mohamed Salah — who became the first African player to reach 50 Champions League goals last time out — and Dominik Szoboszlai, who has scored in five of his last eight Champions League games, will both be vital.
