PSG vs Liverpool: When is it played? And everything you need to know

The suspense is over. After sweeping the Champions League play-offs with convincing victories against Stade Brestois (0-3 and 7-0), PSG were hoping to find out who they would face in the round of 16 between Barcelona or Liverpool.

Liverpool : Leaders, but with ups and downs in 2025

Liverpool have been one of the most solid teams in the Champions League's first round, leading their group with 21 points out of a possible 24. Their only stumble was a defeat to PSV , a team that has so far not allowed a visitor to take a victory since November 2022. That day, Slot reserved many starting players.

However, Liverpool have seen a decline in their form since the start of 2025. Surprisingly, they were knocked out of the FA Cup by lowly Plymouth . Added to this are two consecutive Premier League draws against Everton and Aston Villa , which allowed Arsenal to close the gap. This situation is further complicated by facing a wounded Manchester City team in the next round.

PSG : Unstoppable growth in 2025

In the latter, its performance has been overwhelming, scoring a total of 18 goals in the last four games.

The first meeting between PSG and Liverpool will take place on March 4 at the Parc des Princes , and the second will be on March 11 at Anfield .
