This is a repeat of last season's Champions League semi-final and PSG will be out to get another win. The French champions start this game in second place in Group H, with RB Leipzig behind them in third, both on three points. Both of these sides have had wins over Istanbul Basaksehir and defeats by group leaders Manchester United. Now they meet home and away and who gets the better results are likely to qualify and those who don't head into the Europa League. Leipzig had been going well until last week, They led the Bundesliga and had won their first group game 2-0 at home to Basaksehir. Form has dipped though with a 5-0 loss at Old Trafford followed by a 1-0 defeat away at Borussia Monchengladbach, taking them down to third in the Bundesliga. 

PSG had a shaky start to the new Ligue 1 season losing their first two matches but since then have won seven in a row and lead the table by three points. It's the Champions League that they are desperate to win and came close when losing in the final to Bayern Munich last season. This season's campaign didn't get off to a good start as they lost 2-1 at home to Manchester United. They will most likely have to go to Old Trafford and win if they want to finish top of this group. They got back into contention in this group when winning 2-0 away in Istanbul.  Four of their last six away Champions League games have been won and they may well be catching Leipzig just at the right time. Go for the French side to get an away win here.
