Group C has been one of the most entertaining in this season’s Champions League, and there is still everything to be decided.
Just two points separate group leaders Napoli and last-placed Red Star Belgrade heading into gameweek five.
Liverpool , who lost in Belgrade last time out, travel to Paris Saint-Germain knowing they could book their place in the last-16 with a win, as long as Napoli also beat Red Star.
The Reds face a side running away with the Ligue 1 title, already 15 points clear of second having not yet dropped a single point in 14 matches, but PSG have struggled in Europe this season.
They’ve secured just one win – a home defeat of Red Star – and were beaten in Liverpool on matchday one in the reverse of Wednesday’s fixture.
The clash promises to be intriguing, exciting, and of the highest quality, and you can follow all the action via talkSPORT’s full live commentary of Wednesday’s big kick-off.
What the managers are saying
Thomas Tuchel (PSG) : “We are aware that this meeting against Liverpool is crucial for us.
“We will have to find the right balance between aggressiveness to win and keeping our cool. We will need to have some confidence in our abilities, remain focused and focused on our goal.
“The preparation started last week, when we all found ourselves in training after the international break.”
Jurgen Klopp (Liverpool) : “You can say it’s Paris and then Everton and then it’s Burnley and then bam, bam, bam. That’s how it is. But we don’t make a difference [between the matches].
“We especially don’t think about the second game of a week like that, we think about the next game and that’s big enough. It’s quite a job to do.”
