It's a Dutch reunion for Arne Slot as Liverpool visits PSV Eindhoven in the concluding matchday eight of the League Phase of the UEFA Champions League. This match at the Philips Stadium on Wednesday between the Farmers and the visiting Reds comes with our prediction of over 2.5 goals.
Liverpool are top of the standings with 21 points and already qualified for the round of 16. They just need one point to finish as leaders or hope Barcelona drops points against Atalanta. PSV is 19th with 11 points and needs at least one point here to be sure of progression to the playoffs.
Even otherwise, they have a considerable buffer as they have a good goal difference. Only if they lose by a massive margin here and many other permutations go against them would PSV be out of reckoning.
PSV has shown in recent weeks that they are a tough team to face at home, while Liverpool has shown a bit of vulnerability at the back. That hasn't stopped Liverpool from winning games, but they could be put to a stern test by the hosts here. Read further to find out more about this interesting fixture and our prediction.

PSV Eindhoven - Liverpool: Form Analysis
PSV has three wins, two draws, and two defeats in their seven Champions League matches this season. They are coming off a thrilling 3-2 win over NAC Breda, which made it five wins out of their last seven competitive matches, losing only once.
The hosts have a four-point lead at the top of Eredivisie standings over Ajax, who have a game in hand. They can't take their eye off this match, though, as the Farmers need points here to confirm passage to the playoffs.
PSV won three of their last four Champions League matches.
That run included consecutive wins at this venue, 4-0 vs Girona and 3-2 vs Shakhtar Donetsk, giving them confidence of doing well in the goal count in this fixture.
Liverpool thrashed Ipswich 4-1 on Saturday in the Premier League and has a six-point lead at the top of the standings. They also have a game in hand, so Arne Slot's men seem to be destined for a domestic title push.
The Reds are in red-hot form even in the Champions League, winning all seven matches. Not just that, they have the best defensive record as well, conceding just two goals.
Despite such impressive numbers, conceding in three of their last four competitive matches put them in a tight spot here.

PSV Eindhoven & Liverpool Squad Analysis
Ivan Perisic remains ineligible for the Champions League for PSV Eindhoven. They will have to make a change at the back, as center-back Ryan Flamingo is suspended after his red card against Red Star.
Malick Tillman is out with an ankle injury, while full-back Sergino Dest is still out following an ACL injury. Fode Fofana is also out with a knee injury, while Adamo Nagalo is doubtful with a shoulder injury.
Luuk de Jong is one goal away from entering the history books with PSV.
He needs one strike to become the club's highest scorer in their European Cup/Champions League history. With two goals in the competition already, he remains their best outlet, now that Tillman (three goals) is out.
One player on the verge of a record in the Liverpool camp is Mohamed Salah, who needs one goal here to become the first player to reach 50 European goals for any English club, excluding qualifiers. He is in cracking form with three goals and four assists in this Champions League campaign.
Liverpool are set to miss at least two players with Diogo Jota (muscle injury) and Joe Gomez (hamstring) remaining out of contention for this trip. Curtis Jones came off at half-time in their last Champions League match against Lille and was unavailable last weekend but could be set for a bench role here.
