Arne Slot’s men, who finished top of the table in the new league phase, went straight through to this stage of the competition and were rewarded with a fixture against a resurgent and fine-tund PSG. Liverpool won seven of their eight league phase games and with a firm grip on the Premier League trophy (they are 13 points clear at the top) they can focus their efforts on progessing in Europe.
PSG, meanwhile, came through the play-off round. A 3-0 win in their first leg against Brest did the damage in the tie but the compounded that with a 7-0 spanking at the Parc de Princes in the second leg.
