Paris Saint-Germain vs Celtic Preview

PSG are the new favourites to win this season’s Champions League and many wouldn’t have expected any less after their investment over the summer.

There may be reports of division in their dressing room with Neymar and Cavani having their own factions, but that has not stopped them from performing well as a team.

They have won all of their Champions League games so far including a 3-0 win over Bayern Munich which proved to be Carlo Ancelotti’s last game in charge of the Bavarians.

They are already through to the next round but a win here will ensure they top the group.

Celtic are already out of the Champions League but the Scottish champions are set to remain in Europe with an involvement in the Europa League.

If Bayern win against Anderlecht, Celtic need just a draw in their last game to confirm their place in the Europa league.

They lost the first leg of this encounter 5-0 but they could avoid such a heavy defeat here if they tighten up their defence.

They have met PSG three times and have lost all three games.
