Liverpool Will Be Aiming To Avoid Their 16th Defeat Of The Season When They Take On PSG
Parc des Princes | Champions League QF 1st Leg | Wednesday April 8 | 8pm
Can Arne Slot’s side upset the champions in Paris? BetVictor News brings you the PSG vs Liverpool preview, prediction, H2H record, team news, odds, betting tips and more ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League quarter-final first-leg showdown.
PSG Vs Liverpool Preview
The 2025-26 season has been a sorry state of affairs as far as Liverpool are concerned. Already deemed outsiders in BetVictor’s Champions League outright betting market at 9/1, the Reds have the unenviable task of taking on the current UCL holders.
After their 4-0 walloping by Man City in the FA Cup quarter-final on April 4, it will take a herculean effort to conquer Luis Enrique’s charges. And that is backed up in the PSG vs Liverpool odds, whereby the Parisians are red-hot favourites to gain a first-leg advantage in the French capital.
As it stands, the Merseysiders are priced at 29/10 whereas the 2024-25 winners can be backed at 7/10. The Red-and-Blues head into the match having won their last four games in succession. That includes the two comprehensive wins over Chelsea.
Famously, Enrique’s men successfully postponed the April 11 Ligue 1 fixture against Lens to better prepare for their visit to Anfield. And if Slot’s side crumble like they have so often this season, that decision will ultimately seem surplus.
PSG Vs Liverpool H2H Record
You only have to go back to last season for the most recent update in the PSG vs Liverpool H2H record. Harvey Elliott scored the only goal of the game in Paris to give the Reds a 1-0 advantage in the R16.
In the return fixture, 2025 Ballon d’or winner Ousmane Dembele scored on Merseyside to level the tie. Ultimately, penalties decided the tie whereby the Parisians prevailed 4-1. They would then beat Aston Villa and Arsenal before going on to thrash Inter Milan 5-0 in the finale.
The overall H2H is evenly split. Both sides have won three games each from their six previous encounters. Therefore, both sides have never played out a draw. Something of which could be worth considering when it comes to PSG vs Liverpool betting on Wednesday night.

PSG Vs Liverpool Team News
The trio of Fabian Ruiz, Bradley Barcola and Quentin Ndjantou are ruled out injured for PSG. However, 19-year-old starlet Senny Mayulu is a potential inclusion having returned to training following a minor calf problem.
As for Liverpool, £125million striker Alexander Isak may make the cut. Saturday’s slaughter at Man City was deemed too soon for him to feature so the Swede may warrant a place on the bench. Mohamed Salah, Federico Chiesa and Jeremie Frimpong all featured at the Etihad and came through unscathered. Alisson, Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni are still out.

Top Betting Angles for PSG Vs Liverpool
Win to nil: Available at 14/5 in PSG’s favour, offers plenty of potential after Liverpool’s disaster-class on Saturday
Over 3.5 goals: On-site at 6/5, Liverpool’s leaky backline has the potential to be exposed again
Anytime scorer: Ousmane Dembele (23/20) and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (6/4) offer value
PSG Vs Liverpool Prediction
It’s hard to look past a comfortable PSG victory owing to Liverpool’s recent woes – especially on their travels. A tame 1-0 loss to Galatasaray in the R16 first-leg in Istanbul further highlights their problems away from Anfield.
The champions head into the match in fine form and we are backing the Parisians to prevail with ease.
Prediction: PSG 3-0 Liverpool
