Group C kicks off with a heavyweight contest as Liverpool welcome Paris Saint-Germain to Anfield with both sides looking to lay down an early marker. • After both sides had broken the previous record for group stage goals in 2017/18 – Paris scoring 25 goals, Liverpool 23 – each found their campaigns halted by Real Madrid. While Paris bowed out to the Spanish giants in the last 16 – the second successive year in which they had fallen at that hurdle – Liverpool made it all the way to the final only to lose 3-1 to Madrid in Kyiv, missing out on a sixth European title. Previous meetings • The clubs' only fixtures to date came in the 1996/97 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup semi-finals, when Paris seized control of the tie with a 3-0 first-leg win at the Parc des Princes – although they had to survive a scare back on Merseyside, going through despite a 2-0 defeat. The final ended in a 1-0 loss to Barcelona.

They are unbeaten in their last 16 European home matches (W11 D5), since a 3-0 loss to Real Madrid on 22 October 2014. • The Reds have won their last two home matches against French sides – most recently a 2-1 defeat of Bordeaux in the 2015/16 UEFA Europa League group stage – having lost two of the previous three. Overall, their record at Anfield against visitors is W11 D1 L2. Paris • Ligue 1 champions for the fifth time in six years in 2017/18, and seventh time overall, this is the French side's seventh successive UEFA Champions League campaign. • Semi-finalists in 1995, Paris have been knocked out in the round of 16 in the last two seasons – having been eliminated in the quarter-finals in the four previous campaigns. • Paris have scored in all of their last 16 UEFA Champions League games. • The Parisian club have lost their last two away European games 3-1, at Real Madrid in the round of 16 first leg and Bayern München on matchday six last season. • Paris have lost their last three European matches – equalling the worst run in their history.

10 Liverpool FC - Paris Saint-Germain Tuesday 18 September 2018 - 21.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Anfield, Liverpool Head coach Jürgen Klopp Date of birth: 16 June 1967 Nationality: German Playing career: Glatten, Ergenzingen, Pforzheim, Eintracht Frankfurt, Viktoria Sindlingen, Rot-Weiss Frankfurt, Mainz Coaching career: Mainz, Borussia Dortmund, Liverpool • Having spent his early career in the lower leagues and failed to break into Eintracht's first team, Klopp turned professional with Mainz, starting off as a striker before becoming a no-nonsense defender. Never played in the top flight but made 325 second-division appearances from 1990 to 2001, setting a club record by scoring 52 goals. • 'Kloppo', as he is known in Germany, was appointed Mainz's caretaker coach on 28 February 2001, helping the club avoid relegation to the third tier. Duly won a permanent contract and built Mainz into one of the strongest clubs in the 2. ; narrowly missed out on promotion in 2002 and 2003 before finally taking Mainz into the top flight for the first time in 2004 and kept them in the Bundesliga until 2007, taking them into the 2005/06 UEFA Cup via the UEFA Fair Play ranking. • After another promotion near-miss in 2007/08 Klopp left for Dortmund. Took them to sixth in his first season, led them into the UEFA Europa League the next year and then, with a squad full of exciting young talent, oversaw league title wins in 2010/11 and 2011/12, adding the German Cup in the latter campaign with a 5-2 final victory against Bayern München. • Earned even greater admiration in 2012/13 as he steered Dortmund all the way to the UEFA Champions League final at Wembley, where they lost to Bayern. Dortmund reached another domestic cup final in 2014, but again came up short against Bayern. • Announced in April 2015 he was leaving Dortmund after that season, which ended with a cup final defeat against Wolfsburg. Succeeded as Liverpool manager in October 2015 and took the team to the finals of the English League Cup and UEFA Europa League – helped by a quarter-final defeat of Dortmund – in his first season. Lost both, and there was more final disappointment in 2017/18, which ended in defeat by Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League decider in Kyiv. Thomas Tuchel Date of birth: 29 August 1973 Nationality: German Playing career: Augsburg U19s, Stuttgarter Kickers, Ulm Coaching career: Stuttgart (youth coach and U19s assistant coach), Augsburg (U19s, academy coordinator and reserves), Mainz (U19s and first-team head coach), Borussia Dortmund, Paris Saint-Germain • Tuchel had a fairly undistinguished playing career, retiring prematurely in 1998 due to injury. His first off-pitch role was with the Stuttgart youth team. He subsequently joined Augsburg, where he coached the U19s and reserve sides as well as serving as academy coordinator. • Tuchel moved to Mainz in 2008 and was initially in charge of the U19s, whom he led to a German title. A year after joining the club, Tuchel succeeded Jørn Andersen as coach of the senior team. He went on to qualify twice for the UEFA Europa League, though Mainz were eliminated at the third qualifying round stage on both occasions. • He took over from Jürgen Klopp in the Dortmund dugout prior to the 2015/16 campaign and led his side to the UEFA Europa League quarter-finals, where they came up against Klopp's Liverpool team – and lost 5-4 on aggregate. • Dortmund fared well under Tuchel in the Bundesliga in 2015/16, racking up 78 points to finish second behind Bayern München and qualify automatically for the 2016/17 UEFA Champions League group stage. They were also beaten by Bayern in the German Cup final in Tuchel's debut season. • Tuchel's first coaching honour followed in 2016/17, Dortmund overcoming Eintracht Frankfurt 3-1 in the German Cup final in what proved to be his last match in charge; he left the club three days later and returned to football 12 months later, signing a two-year deal to replace Unai Emery at Paris.
