PSG News & Analysis

PSG are without a win in their last two games in the Champions League. Les Parisiens made a surprising draw against Athletic Bilbao which was followed by a defeat against Sporting CP. This only strengthened our feelings that right now PSG are not in their best shape.

During the weekend Luis Enrique’s team claimed another win in the Ligue 1, though. The champions secured the three points thanks to a late goal by Bradley Barcola in the 79th minute. Barcola executed an assist from Ousmane Dembele and put the ball in the net.

Luis Enrique has some squad problems before this clash. The Spanish tactician can’t use players like Fabian Ruiz, Nuno Mendes and Joao Neves – they are all recovering from injuries.

Newcastle United News & Analysis

Newcastle United are having a fine Champions League campaign so far, but they need to win in Paris in order to secure their place in Top 8. The English side is aiming to achieve a second consecutive win in the tournament after the one against PSV at home – 3-0.

Eddie Howe’s team didn’t prepare for this game in the best way possible, though. The Magpies hosted Aston Villa at the St. James’ Park, but didn’t have a proper match and conceded a 0-2 loss.

Newcastle’s manager could make a change or two for the trip to Paris. Nick Woltemade could return in the starting eleven while Anthony Elanga, Jacob Ramsey and Joe Willock are options for the line-up as well.
