Liverpool travel to take on Paris Saint-Germain tonight in the first leg of their massive Champions League last-16 tie.

Finishing top of the new-look league phase in Europe’s significantly revamped elite club competition with seven wins and only one defeat from their eight matches did not spare the Reds from a tough first knockout assignment, with underperforming PSG having only managed a 15th-place finish before thrashing French rivals Brest 10-0 on aggregate in a thoroughly one-sided play-off tie that included a 7-0 win in the second leg.

They were subsequently drawn against Arne Slot’s side instead of Barcelona, who ended up paired with Benfica after the latter overcame Monaco. It is a heavyweight meeting between two in-form giants of the European game, both of whom appear firmly on track to win domestic league titles this season.

Liverpool boast a commanding 13-point lead over faltering rivals Arsenal at the Premier League summit with just 10 matches left to play this term as they also prepare to contest the Carabao Cup final this month, while undefeated reigning champions PSG’s advantage at the top of Ligue 1 is the same having already won the Trophee des Champions and advanced to the Coupe de France semi-finals under Luis Enrique.

The winner of this tie are likely to face Aston Villa in the quarter-finals after their late show secured a commanding 3-1 win away at Club Brugge on Tuesday.
