PARIS (Interstat) — Paris Saint-Germain opened its Champions League campaign with a 2-0 victory over Liverpool at Parc des Princes on Wednesday.

Désiré Doué put the hosts ahead in the 11th minute, finishing an assist from substitute Alexis Mac Allister. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia sealed the win in the 65th, converting a pass from fellow substitute Joe Gomez. Both Gomez and Mac Allister entered the match after halftime and received yellow cards shortly thereafter.

The result aligned with pre-match projections from Interstat, which gave PSG a 70.3 percent win probability and forecast a 2-1 scoreline. PSG begins the European competition with a win, while Liverpool starts with a loss.
