PSG manager Thomas Tuchel has confirmed that he expects Kylian Mbappe and Neymar to play against Liverpool on Wednesday.
The pair were in danger of missing the clash due to injury, but the German has allayed those fears.

Neymar is a doubt with a right abductor strain, whilst Mbappe could miss the clash with Liverpool after suffering a shoulder injury whilst playing for France.
Mbappe scored in the reverse fixture against Liverpool, which Jurgen Klopp’s men won courtesy of a last-minute goal from Roberto Firmino.
The French forward, Mbappe, has scored 11 goals in seven Ligue 1 appearances this season and is one of the favourites to win this year’s Ballon d’Or.
Liverpool would have been hoping Mbappe and Neymar are missing as they look to qualify for the knockout stages of the competition.
