Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool will face Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.

Liverpool defensive midfielder Fabinho has taken to social networking site Twitter to express his excitement at the prospect of playing against Paris Saint-Germain this evening.

Jurgen Klopp’s side will take on PSG at Anfield in their opening Champions League group-stage game on Tuesday evening.

Could Fabinho feature?

Fabinho joined Liverpool from AS Monaco in the summer transfer window for an initial fee reported by Sky Sports to be worth £39.3 million.

Much was expected of the defensive midfielder when he arrived at Anfield in the summer, but the 24-year-old has yet to make an appearance in a competitive match for the Reds.

The Brazil international, though, was among the substitutes during Liverpool’s 2-1 win against Tottenham Hotspur away from home at the Wembley Stadium in the Premier League at the weekend.

Given that Fabinho has experience of playing in the Champions League and has played against PSG during his time at PSG, perhaps manager Klopp will include him in the starting lineup this evening, and maybe the Brazilian’s post on Twitter is indicative of that.
