One of the most anticipated matches in the Champions League sees PSG play host to Manchester City in the competition’s semi final on Wednesday. PSG are looking to make it to their second straight final while City are eying their first ever appearance in the final. PSG are coming from a 3-1 win over Metz in the French Ligue 1, a victory they had to dig deep to get. Kylian Mbappe scored twice in the game but ended up subbed with a thigh injury and PSG are facing a race against time to have him ready for City’s visit. The Parisians have a loss and four wins in their last five matches and failed to score in just one of the five. They haven’t been comfortable at home in recent matches, the last six producing three defeats, but after winning the last two, they’ll feel confident going to this one. Going to this game, PSG have three losses and six wins in the Champions League; they haven’t won their last two home matches in the competition. The two matches found PSG holding crucial first leg wins and here they have a big test, especially having kept just one clean sheet in six home matches in this competition.

Manchester City are eyeing a treble and on Sunday they won their first – the League Cup, while the Premier League is well within reach. In their current form, it is hard to doubt their chances of bagging the Champions League as well. They have three wins in the last five matches and coming from the League Cup win over Tottenham Hotspur, they’ll be in high spirits for this game. Unlike PSG, City have a fully fit squad to pick from. Kevin De Bruyne was a concern ahead of the League Cup final but he managed to get a starting berth in the game and even provided the assist for the winner. That was City’s 17th win in 18 away matches across all competitions. It was also their first away clean sheet in the last four. City are unbeaten in the Champions League this season; from their 10 matches, they have nine wins. They are unbeaten in nine away Champions League matches as well.
