In-depth Analysis
Liverpool head into the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final in a more relaxed state after ending a run of three consecutive defeats with a 2-0 victory over Fulham in the Premier League. Goals from young talent Rio Ngumoha and veteran star Mohamed Salah secured a convincing win for The Kop at Anfield.
This result once again highlights Liverpool’s formidable strength at home. In fact, they have lost just once in their last 14 matches at Anfield, recording 9 wins and 4 draws. That lone defeat came in a 1-2 loss to Manchester City on February 9.
However, PSG present an entirely different challenge compared to the opponents Liverpool have faced at home this season. The reigning European champions are in outstanding form, winning their last five matches in a row. Moreover, Luis Enrique’s side have also won all of their last four away games.
Notably, PSG recently defeated another English club, Chelsea, with a convincing 3-0 victory at Stamford Bridge in the Champions League Round of 16. It’s clear that Luis Enrique’s team are rediscovering their momentum from last season, becoming more explosive and energetic as they progress deeper into the competition.
