PSG’s Luis Enrique expects ‘several tough moments’ against Liverpool | OneFootball

PSG face Liverpool this Tuesday at Anfield in the Champions League quarter-finals’ return leg. Les Parisiens have an aggregate 2-0 lead following last week’s dominant win courtesy of goals from wingmen Désiré Doué and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. PSG could have killed off the tie last week, but Liverpool will fancy their chances at mounting another famous Champions League comeback under the Anfield floodlights.

PSG head coach Luis Enrique faced the media on Tuesday to preview the tie, and the Spaniard admits his side will suffer against a Liverpool team that will have nothing left to lose. “There will be several tough moments. I’m sure we’ll be ready, but I’m also sure we’ll suffer.“

The former Barcelona boss says he not only wants to qualify for the Champions League semi-finals, he wants his team to win Tuesday’s return leg. “We try to prepare for matches in the same way, whether we’ve won or not“, Luis Enrique said. “That’s one of our strengths. We have the same mentality as last season when we lost the first leg.” Contrary to last week’s leg, Luis Enrique will be able to rely on France international winger Bradley Barcola against Arne Slot’s Reds.
