It's been another positive week for Liverpool, who remain on course for top honours in both Europe and the Premier League.

The Reds soaked up a barrage of pressure before striking at the death in the first leg of their Round of 16 tie with Paris Saint-Germain in midweek to give themselves a crucial advantage ahead of the return leg at Anfield.

Arne Slot's men will host struggling Southampton on Saturday before that second meeting with PSG.



They know victory would pile even more pressure on Arsenal, who could find themselves a staggering 16 points behind Liverpool in the title race by the time they kick-off against Manchester United the following day.

Slot hits back at claims

Arne Slot has dismissed claims from some people that Liverpool have been 'lucky' with injuries this season.

Few people fancied the Reds to challenge for the title this season following Jurgen Klopp's exit at the end of the 2023-24 campaign, but Slot and his players have exceeded all expectations and are now red-hot favourites to clinch a 20th domestic crown.

Some have pointed out Liverpool's good fortune with injuries while their title rivals, Arsenal and Manchester City, have lost several big-name players.

But Slot insists that there is nothing lucky about Liverpool's injury record and that it's down to all the good work being done off the pitch.

Klopp reveals return plans(

Jurgen Klopp says he plans to take in a Liverpool game before the end of the season.

Jurgen Klopp says he will return to Anfield to watch Liverpool lift the Premier League title if they are crowned champions before the end of May.

Klopp has not returned to watch a game since stepping down at the end of last season, instead watching from afar as his old team close in on the title.

But he has now confirmed he will be at Anfield for Liverpool's final match against Crystal Palace - and only a fear of 'jinxing' Arne Slot's side has stopped him from returning sooner.

Salah frustrated at PSG sub.

Arne Slot admits Mohamed Salah was less than impressed that he decided to substitute the Liverpool forward in the closing stages of the recent match with PSG.

Salah was withdrawn in the 86th minute with the score level at 0-0
