Two first-place teams in their respective domestic leagues will clash in the first leg of the Champions League 2024-25 Round of 16 Wednesday when EPL leaders Liverpool travel to face Ligue 1 leaders Paris Saint-Germain.

Despite being thoroughly outplayed by Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes in the first leg of their Champions League encounter in the last-16 round, Liverpool walked away from the French capital with a narrow advantage to take back into the rematch.

Liverpool pulled off a barely comprehensible 1-0 victory over Paris St Germain as substitute Harvey Elliott struck late on having been battered by the Ligue 1 champions for 87 minutes. Goalkeeper Alisson Becker was the hero on the night for the Premier League side.
