PSG v Liverpool, Paris line-up in the press: no surprises | OneFootball

This Wednesday, in the first legs of the 2025-2026 Champions League quarter-finals (second leg on April 14), Paris Saint-Germain will face Liverpool at the Parc des Princes (kick-off at 9 p.m., broadcast on Canal+). On the eve of this match, the press tried to predict the lineup that Paris coach Luis Enrique will field.

Le Parisien (4-3-3) –

Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Doué

Neves – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi

Safonov.

L’Equipe (4-3-3) –

Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Doué

Neves – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi

Safonov.

It is clearly a possible team, given that there is very little doubt that the starting eleven will be made up of key players for a match in which no rotation is expected, obviously. A typical starting eleven is emerging for this PSG side, but a few uncertainties remain amid fierce competition. Not to mention versatility, which is so important for coach Luis Enrique. He knows how to surprise and gives no clues to the press, so let’s remain cautious.

We will have certainty tonight when the lineup is officially announced, around an hour before kick-off. And there could still be a few doubts about the exact positions of certain players (such as between Désiré Doué and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia). In any case, we know the match will feature plenty of changes.
