The chasers will now be ensuring they secure top four after falling miles behind Arne Slot’s men.The tie is still very much in the balance so they can’t even take one eye off things to focus on the League Cup final on Sunday.PSG registered 27 shots at goal with 10 of those on target. Liverpool scored with their only shot on target from just TWO shots in the game.Alisson was a big part of that and he’ll be needed in top form again with PSG in fine form and scoring another four goals in their win on Saturday as they too canter to league glory.First scorer and correct score predictionsCorrect score: 1-2 at 9/1 with Betfred – HEREFirst scorer: Ousmane Dembele 11/2 with talkSPORT BET – HERELiverpool vs PSG latest oddsOdds are correct at the time of publication and are subject to change.How to claim..William Hill £60 welcome bonusVisit the William Hill website HERE*Register an account using the Promo Code: T60Once your account is registered, click ‘opt in’ on the ‘Vegas Promotion’ pageDeposit a minimum of £10 in your main account to receive a £20 Vegas Bonus for use on Selected GamesThen place a bet with a minimum stake of £10 at odds of 1/2 or greater on any football marketOnce that’s settled, your account will be credited with £40 in free betsWilliam Hill: Claim £60 welcome bonus – click here*PSG vs Liverpool predictions and tipsBattleMuch was spoken about Ousmane Dembele last week.

Fisher, 26, told SunSport: “I love a Chinese. Sometimes it ain’t a bad thing on a Saturday night to have a big fuel up.”Because yeah, it’s nice to stick to it all the time like I did on my last fight, but sometimes you need a bit of c**p in your system and a bit of a bit of hair on your chest, you know.”A bit of egg fried rice ain’t a problem. Last time I didn’t have a Chinese in six months before that fight, but I don’t even think that’s a good thing.READ MORE IN BOXING”Bit of Chinese ain’t gonna hurt you, do you know what I mean?

We did a test this morning, and I felt it again!Most read in FootballJOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUSGames Neymar has missed on his sister’s birthday2013/14 – Neymar was an unused substitute for Barcelona on March 16 during his year at Barcelona.2014/15 – Picked up a yellow card which led to a suspension on March 8.2015/16 – Ruled out with a suspension returning on March 12.2016/17 – Unavailable for a match on March 12 due to a muscular injury.2017/18 – Neymar missed the remainder of the season from February having suffered a metatarsal fracture.2018/19 – The Brazilian star was ruled out again for the same issue as the previous year but only the whole of February and March this time.2019/20 – Surprisingly played and scored on March 11 in a 2-0 win over Dortmund in a Champions League tie.2020/21 – Missed a Ligue 1 fixture on March 13 with having sustained a muscular injury in the game prior.2022/23 – Missed PSG’s 2-1 win at Brest on March 12, after injuring his ankle ligaments in a nasty tackle following PSG’s 4-3 win over Lille. That injury ruled him out for the remainder of the season.2023/24 – Pick up an ACL injury at Al-Hilal which ruled him out2024/25 – Feeling of discomfort meant he missed Santos vs Corinthians”Unfortunately, this is part of football… It didn’t work out today, but we’ll come back even stronger to fight for our goals!”It has become a recurring theme for Neymar to be unavailable around March 11 since 2014.Neymar ‘set to buy £7million six-acre private ISLAND’ which has four spectacular villas in tropical waters off BrazilHe has missed matches due to suspension but mostly because of injury, often unnamed muscle problems.Santos coach Pedro Caixinha defended Neymar’s absence, saying: “Our commitment is to do everything within our reach to prevent Neymar from getting injured. “And some discomfort is not an injury. He wasn’t in condition to give his best. Now, we’re not going to create an issue where none exists.” More
