The Champions League is back with a bang, as PSG will host Barcelona in their first leg clash of the Last 16. This match should be very entertaining as both teams are very good in attack and PSG will try to prove they are capable of winning the Champions League Trophy.

Barcelona are favorites in this matchup, but will have to play at their best to eliminate PSG as the French Champions have recently improved their form a lot and added German attacking Midfielder Julian Draxler to their team. He has already fit in and scored 4 goals since arriving to Paris. The key for Barca will be the return of midfield maestro Andres Iniesta who will provide dangerous balls for the attacking trio. PSG's defence will have a tough night, but they will be very dangerous on the counter attack, with Angel Di Maria and Julian Draxler on either side of Edison Cavani.
UPDATE: T.Silva is out so Kimpembe will most likely play as a CB for PSG!

Predicted Lineups:
Trapp; Aurier, Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Kurzawa/Maxwell; Verratti, Rabiot, Matuidi; Di Maria, Draxler, Cavani
Ter Stegen; Sergi Roberto, Pique, Umtiti, J.Alba; Rakitič, Busquets, Iniesta; Messi, Suarez, Neymar
Our Prediction:
PSG will host the first match and we expect the match to be very entertaining, so we don't believe any team will keep a clean-sheet. Cavani is in fantastic goalscoring form, while Barca's trio MSN hardly ever disappoint as well.
Result: 2:2
