Liverpool scored 41 goals on the way to the Champions League final last season, more than any other team in the competition by a wide margin. The Reds and PSG combined for 46 goals in the group stage, also more than anyone else in the competition. This year, they face each other in what should be a spectacle for everyone to behold.

Liverpool vs PSG Preview
Both clubs are off to ideal starts in their domestic championships. Liverpool just beat Tottenham in London to join Chelsea as the only two Premier League teams with 15 points. At the same time, Paris Saint-Germain crashed St. Etienne 4-0 without Neymar and Mbappe in the lineup. The pair rested for Tuesday’s clash. Thomas Tuchel’s team sits alone on top of Ligue 1’s table and has scored at least three goals in all six competitive matches to begin the new season.
Edinson Cavani’s return is a huge boost for PSG. The Uruguayan did not miss a beat after recovering from an injury sustained during the World Cup and has already tallied three goals. Neymar and Mbappe have scored four each. Sadio Mane has four as well. He’s Liverpool’s best scorer so far. He’ll play alongside Mohamed Salah, but not alongside Roberto Firmino, as the Brazilian got accidentally poked in the eye by Jan Vertonghen over the weekend. Initial diagnosis says it’s only an abrasion which won’t leave any lasting damage, but in all likelihood, Firmino will be unavailable for this much-anticipated fixture. Daniel Sturridge should get a rare start unless Jurgen Klopp decides to go with a no-striker formation, in which case Xherdan Shaqiri or even Fabinho are options.
