Champions League: Paris Saint Germain – Liverpool 08/04/2026

Betting on goals

Many ups and downs for this season’s PSG, which probably has the highest ceiling of any team, without showing it in many matches. However, they enter the final stretch of the season without the many problems that troubled them during the year.

This is the stage of the season where last year they accelerated and raised their performance to levels no other team could follow. In the round of 16 they eliminated Liverpool on penalties (after two 0-1 results), showing they were clearly superior in both matches against an opponent who was in excellent form at the time.

Liverpool eventually managed to eliminate Galatasaray, despite losing 1-0 in the first match. The 4-0 in the return leg was their only positive result in the last month. It was followed by a 2-1 defeat to Brighton in the league and the heavy 4-0 loss to Manchester City in the Cup.

The atmosphere in the team is extremely bad, with last year’s English champions in danger of even missing next season’s Champions League. Slot is questioned by everyone and it seems unlikely he will keep his job next season.

Without stabilizing their performance, Paris look one class above the current Liverpool. The 1.70 on the home win probably reflects the current difference in quality. Seeing the two high scoring matches of the Parisians against Chelsea, as well as the heavy defeat Liverpool suffered from City, we take the risk to combine the home win with over 2.5, raising the odds to around 2.30.
