FC Barcelona vs PSG: Champions League prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h, odds today
PSG fought back from 1-0 down to take a 2-1 lead, but surrendered two goals in the last 30 minutes to give Barcelona the advantage. Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele were mostly kept quiet by a resolute Barcelona defence, although Dembele scored a screamer in the 48th minute to draw the sides level.
It could potentially be Mbappe’s last Champions League game in a PSG shirt, and he’ll be looking to impress his potential future employers, Real Madrid, by knocking out their rivals on their home turf. He’s scored 13 goals in 11 away games in the knockout stages of the Champions League.
Barcelona have yet to lose at home in the Champions League this season, while PSG have yet to keep a clean sheet on their travels.

Barcelona vs PSG team news
Gavi and Alejandro Balde are both out for the rest of the season. Andreas Christiansen and Sergi Roberto are both suspended due to an accumulation of yellow cards.
Pedri featured in the first leg after a lengthy injury lay-off, and should start in place of Roberto in midfield.
Achraf Hakimi returns from suspension and will start at right-back, shifting Marquinhos back to centre-back, which will likely mean Lucas Beraldo will drop to the bench.
Nordi Mukiele has recovered from a concussion and will be on the bench after missing the first leg. Presnel Kimpembe, Layvin Kurzawa and Sergio Rico have all been ruled out.

Barcelona vs PSG prediction
Barcelona’s home record and lead on aggregate should be too much for PSG to overcome, although Kylian Mbappe will be looking to make up for a poor first leg performance.
Barcelona to win, 2-1 (agg. 5-3).
