After the 2-0 first leg win at home in Paris’ Prinzenpark, PSG is of course in a better starting position. The French champions only reached the round of 16 as second in Group F behind Borussia Dortmund and recorded a manageable eight points. Especially away from home there was only one poor point and two defeats in Newcastle (1:4) and Milan (1:2). Ultimately, progress against Milan was only saved by winning a direct comparison. Real Sociedad also finished the group stage level on points with a Milan club. Since there was no decision on the direct comparison (1:1, 0:0), the Basques prevailed as winners of Group D thanks to the better goal difference over Inter. La Real remained undefeated.

Compared to the last league game last Saturday, which was lost 2-3 at Sevilla FC, the Basques only have three players left in Imanol Alguacil’s starting line-up. These are goalkeeper Álex Remiro, Igor Zubeldía and Martín Zubimendi. There are five changes on the guests’ side after Friday’s 0-0 draw in Monaco. Instead of Nordi Mukiele, Manuel Ugarte, Carlos Soler, Gonçalo Ramos (all bench) and Marco Asensio (not injured in the squad), Luis Enrique called Nuno Mendes, Fabián Ruiz, Warren Zaire-Emery, Ousmane Dembélé and Bradley Barcola into the Paris starting eleven today .
