European heavyweights collide as PSG host Bayern Munich in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 tie.
It's a repeat of the 2020/21 quarter-finals – where PSG advanced on away goals – and the 2019/20 final, which Bayern won 1-0 to become champions of Europe for the sixth time.
That final was the closest PSG have come to getting their hands on club football's most prestigious trophy. They made it to the semi-finals the following season but have crashed out in the last 16 in four of the past six campaigns, losing 3-2 on aggregate to Real Madrid last term. Christopher Galtier's side finished second in their group this time around, albeit only due to having scored fewer away goals than winners Benfica.
As for Bayern, they'll be looking to make it through to the quarter-finals for the third successive season (although they have fallen at that hurdle on each of the last two occasions). The German giants have gone out of the Champions League in the last 16 just once since 2011 – to Liverpool in 2019 – and were the only team to win all six of their group matches this term.
Kick-off is at 8pm GMT.
Team news
PSG have doubts over the fitness of Kylian Mbappe, who has missed the last couple of weeks with a thigh injury, but Lionel Messi is set to return after sitting out Saturday's Ligue 1 loss to Monaco with a hamstring problem.
Fabian Ruiz could also be back after missing that game through a virus, but Renato Sanches and Nordi Mukiele remain sidelined.
Meanwhile, Bayern boss Julian Nagelsmann is still without Sadio Mane, Ryan Gravenberch and Noussair Mazraoui – in addition to Theo Hernandez and Manuel Neuer, who are out for the season.
Neuer's absence means that January signing Yann Sommer is set to make his European debut for Bayern.
Form
PSG come into this clash on their longest losing run in almost a year: two games, which rather serves to underline their dominance in recent times. Nonetheless, Galtier will demand a big response from his Ligue 1 tabel-toppers, after defeats to Monaco in the league and arch-rivals Marseille in the Coupe de France.
Bayern will hope to inflict PSG's first home loss since April 2021 – when Manchester City won in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals. Nagelsmann and co. head to Paris unbeaten in 19 matches, a run which stretches back to mid-September. The Bundesliga leaders have lost just once in all competitions this term.
Referee
Michael Oliver of England will be the referee for PSG vs Bayern Munich.
Stadium
PSG vs Bayern Munich will be played at the 48,583-capacity Parc des Princes in Paris.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Champions League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a Champions League fixture, then you won't be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Champions League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
