The Premier League giants head to the Parc des Princes on Wednesday for a crucial clash in Group C of the Champions League.

Napoli (six points) and Liverpool (six) are the first two, but only in front of PSG (five) and Red Star Belgrade (four) two days from the end.

Klopp's team has struggled in Europe recently – losing four straight games on the road – and while Tuchel has congratulated his German compatriot, he knows his team can make the most of their advantage at home.

"I'm not surprised by their overall performance – Jurgen does an amazing job, he's an incredible coach and you can see his contribution and his feat in three and a half years," Tuchel told a press conference .

"He lost a single key player I think, [Philippe] Coutinho, and spent a lot of money. He did a great job putting this machine on the ground every third day.

"At the same time, we have the feeling that in the away games we can get it and it is proven.I am sure it will be a different Liverpool team than Belgrade. . [when the Reds lost 2-0 earlier this month].

"It's not like in the case of who's playing, in the mental aspect, maybe that can happen, you feel like five percent too sure to be the best, and the first shot is from the other side.

"It can be a dynamic like this but we are also convinced that we have the weapons, the talent and the quality and the mentality necessary for our moments to be in the game."
