PSG v Liverpool Betting Tips [5 March 2025]

After establishing healthy leads domestically, Liverpool and PSG will halt their league campaigns for a Champions League meetup. French giants PSG will host Liverpool in the first leg of their last 16 encounter. We have a prediction for this match with the winner after the return leg set to face Club Brugge or Aston Villa.

Having finished outside the top eight in the league stage, PSG faced Brest in a two-legged knockout round play-off. They sailed through easily, winning 10-0 on aggregate. Luis Enrique’s side wiped away Lille 4-1 in their last match.

With that win, they went 22 matches without defeat. Les Parisiens will also seek a lift against an English team, having lost five of eight matches against Premier League sides.

The Reds have done their business in the Champions League professionally. They finished top in the league phase, only losing their final match, long after securing an automatic slot.

Liverpool are going into a tough match, seeing that their hosts have only lost 10 of the last 80 home matches in Europe. Having been eliminated from the FA Cup, Liverpool had a free weekend and should be well-rested for this match.

They have a dominant record against French sides, winning five times in seven matches. Away from home, Liverpool won 16 of 22 Champions League matches.

one thing we cannot rule out from this game is goals. Both teams are prolific scorers and are coming off good runs. Neither team is known for playing defensively and the amount of talent in attack is sure to see both keepers having tough times.

PSG’s last five Champions League matches had at least three goals scored. Liverpool’s matches in Europe have also been high scoring and we expect to see the same here. Our prediction for PSG v Liverpool is for over 2.5 goals.
