Another explosive game in the UEFA Champions League is expected when Manchester City hosts PSG on Tuesday. City go to this game leading 2-1 from the first leg and will be looking to complete the job, needing just a draw. They are coming from a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace which moved them closer to the Premier League title and they are right on course for a treble. That was their fourth straight win and they’ve scored twice in three of the four games, while keeping two clean sheets in the last five. City have 12 wins in their last 15 matches across all competitions and in the Champions League, they have six straight wins, scoring two or more in each but failing to keep a clean sheet in any of the last three. Among the teams remaining in the Champions League, City are the only ones yet to taste defeat, and they’ve only failed to score in one of the 11 matches played. At home, they have five straight wins in the Champions League.

PSG will be the more pressured side in this game. To advance, they must win, and by at least two clear goals. They are coming from a 2-1 win over Lens and have a concern with key forward Kylian Mbappe having missed the game, with a reported calf injury. It is still not clear whether he will be fit for this clash or not. PSG head to this game having managed just one clean sheet in their last five matches but they’ve scored at least two goals in four of them while each of their last five has produced over 2.5 goals. They will be happier to be playing away from home as they’ve done much better on the road. In their last 10 away matches they have 10 wins and the last five have all yielded over 2.5 goals. In the Champions League, PSG head here with two straight losses, but away from home they have three straight wins in the competition, and just one loss in the last seven. They beat Manchester United, Barcelona and Bayern Munich in the last three away matches in the Champions League. In the last four away matches in this competition, PSG have no clean sheet, but they've scored three or more in the last three matches.
