Why Is Mohamed Salah Not Playing Tonight for Liverpool vs PSG?

Liverpool will look to complete a comeback against PSG at Anfield tonight in the second leg of the Champions League quarterfinal.

Liverpool is two goals down after losing 2-0 to PSG last week in Paris for the first leg. Mohamed Salah was benched during the last game and did not play against PSG in the first leg.

Salah is once again not included in the starting lineup for Liverpool for the second leg against PSG tonight.

Salah played over the weekend for Liverpool in the Premier League against Fulham, where he scored the second goal in their 2-0 home win.

Salah is not injured and is on the Liverpool bench for the match against PSG tonight.

Why Mohamed Salah is Benched Again?

Mohamed Salah is not injured, and Arne Slot has decided to play Hugo Ekitike and Alexander Isak together in the attack.

Slot is expected to play without wingers, with Isak and Ekitike alongside each other up top, with Florian Writz and Dominik Szoboszlai playing behind both strikers in a similar way to the game against Galatasaray last month at Anfield.

Salah could get minutes against PSG tonight in the second half, which could mark his last Champions League match for Liverpool in his career.
