Liverpool’s tie against Paris Saint-Germain has been made tougher after Thomas Tuchel confirmed Kylian Mbappe and Neymar are fit to play against the Reds.

The PSG pair had picked up knocks during the international break, but the German manager told during a press conference (h/t Daily Mail) that the pair will face us:

“Neymar is 100 per cent fit, as is Mbappe, and they will be in the line-up tomorrow.”

Liverpool defeated PSG in the reverse fixture a few weeks ago, and a similar result will be enough to take us into the next round of the competition.

Our players have to be a little careful and hopefully, we can shackle the PSG pair and reduce their impact on the game.

The Reds come into the game off an impressive 3-0 win over Watford, but playing at the Parc des Princes will not be easy.

Liverpool have been poor in their away Champions League matches this season and have two losses from two trips.

However, we also have a couple of fitness boosts as Joe Gomez and Sadio Mane have been declared fit to face the French champions on Wednesday.

The clash leads to another big game for the Reds as we have a Merseyside derby at the weekend, and that will not be an easy game either.

Everton have done well this season under Marco Silva but coming from Paris with a win will surely give us the extra boost as we look to continue our unbeaten Premier League start.
