Liverpool have a big week ahead as they look to win their first trophy of the season next weekend.

The Reds face Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley on Sunday, hoping to defend their final piece of silverware won under Jurgen Klopp.

Before all that, though, Liverpool have the small matter of a Champions League last-16 second-leg against PSG at Anfield.

The Reds were disappointing during the first-leg in Paris on Wednesday, but Harvey Elliott’s late goal meant they somehow came away with a 1-0 win.

Given how poorly Liverpool played at the Parc des Princes, PSG players sound to be confident of getting a result on Merseyside.

Liverpool played terribly and still came away with a win.

Nevertheless, the Ligue 1 champions have declared themselves to be incredibly confident despite the blow of Elliott’s late goal.

Desire Doue has predicted a ‘special’ evening at Anfield in which PSG will go through, while Luis Enrique has been bullish following his team’s 4-1 win over Rennes on Saturday.

“We absolutely have to win!” the Spanish manager told Telefoot.

“The goal, the only one, is victory.”

Speaking immediately after the game last Wednesday, a clearly frustrated Vitinha predicted PSG to win at Anfield and qualify for the final eight of the competition.

High profile publication L’Equipe then ran a story which suggested PSG players have been ‘surprised’ at the low level of Liverpool and were even more confident than before the tie began that they will progress.

All the while, the French champions appear to be forgetting that clubs have turned up at Anfield similarly confident in the recent past only to leave with their tail firmly between their legs.

The two ties are of course very different, but PSG could learn a lot from what happened to Barcelona back in 2019.

Former Liverpool players Philippe Coutinho and Luis Suarez took smiling pictures back at Anfield before the game, seemingly certain that their progression to the final would be a formality.
