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

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.

Slot suggests that Salah could play and explained his decision to start Isak, who will not play the full match, according to the Liverpool manager.

Slot said, "The thinking is that we need to score goals, and there are goals in these players. They [Isak & Ekitike] are two target men, two players we can play in to. As you might not know, Isak will not be able to play much more than 45 minutes - with the possibility of extra time, it makes sense for me to start him."
