Liverpool are set to receive a boost for their quarter-final clash vs PSG thanks to fixture scheduling in Ligue 1 according to reports. Earlier in the competition, PSG successfully requested that their Ligue 1 game against Nantes be postponed in order to create a clear week around their last‑16 tie with Chelsea, giving Luis Enrique’s side extra time to rest and prepare.



As Spiro reports, Lens are not entertaining any suggestion of moving their league clash with PSG, which is currently scheduled to fall between the two legs of the quarter‑final against Liverpool on 11 April: “Encouraging news for Liverpool: Unlike the Chelsea tie – when PSG got their league game against Nantes postponed between legs – Luis Enrique’s side have a potential title decider in Lens between Liverpool games. There’s no alternative scenario that would ‘make sense’ for Lens.” That means PSG are staring at a potential title‑shaping trip to a high‑energy Lens side right in the middle of their showdown with the Reds, forcing Enrique to juggle minutes, manage fatigue and possibly rotate heavily in one of the three fixtures.
