PSG

Paris Saint-Germain will look to get back to winning ways when they welcome Belgian Champions Club Brugge to Parc des Princes.

The French heavyweights snatched a 1-1 draw at the death over the weekend against Lens to extend their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 table. 

But the performance would have been a worry for Mauricio Pochettino, whose side are expected to win the Champions League this season after the failures of the past.

With a squad boasting three of the top ten best players in the world in Ginaguli Donnaruma, Kylian Mbappe, and Lionel Messi, the hosts have failed to win their group. 

Although they have qualified for the next round, they currently sit second in their group and will finish behind Man City even if they win this game.

The Parisians started their UCL campaign with a 1-1 draw with Club Brugge in September, and will fancy their chances of beating the visitors at the Parc des Princes where they have won eleven of their last 12 games.

Possible PSG starting line-ups

Keylor Navas; Archraf Hakimi, Presnel Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Juan Bernat, Marco Verratti, Danilo, Georginio Wijnaldum, Mauro Icardi, Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi.

Injured: Julian Draxler, Neymar, Ander Herrera, Sérgio Ramos, 

Doubtful: None

Suspended: None

Club Brugge 

After a positive start to their 2021/22 Champions league campaign, Club Brugge travel to France in danger of elimination.

The Belgian side began their group game with a 1-1 draw with PSG followed by a 2-1 win over RB Leipzig. But since picking up those four points, they have lost their remaining group games with an aggregate score of 14-2, making them one of the worst sides in the last three Group games.

They currently sit bottom of Group A and will have to at least get a point from this tie, and hope that Manchester City beat RB Leipzig in the other Group A fixture.

Possible Club Brugge starting line-ups

Simon Mignolet; Clinton Mata, Brandon Mechele, Stanley Nsoki, Eduard Sobol; Matej Mitrovic, Eder Alvarez Balanta, Hans Vanaken; Charles De Ketelaere, Bas Dost, Noa Lang.

Injured: Ruben Providence

Doubtful: None

Suspended: None
