PSG in line to face UEFA sanctions ahead of Liverpool visit

Paris Saint-Germain could be forced to leave thousands of seats empty for the all-important Champions League clash with Liverpool in two weeks’ time, according to the Liverpool Echo. 

Depending on the result of a UEFA Disciplinary Committee hearing with regards to incidents between PSG and Red Star Belgrade supporters earlier in the group stage.

The Parc des Princes could hence be subject to a forced total or partial closure, should UEFA deem the infringements of the PSG faithful serious enough.

Liverpool will travel to Paris in desperate need of a win in order to progress from their Champions League group, after a 2-0 defeat to Red Star severely dented hopes of repeating their final appearance from a year ago.

The Reds have been allocated 2,000 seats in the 47,000 capacity arena, which suggests a game behind closed doors is unlikely.

Regardless, a partial closure would still go some way to creating an advantageous atmosphere for a ravenous Liverpool side.
