Barcelona host Paris Saint-Germain in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie on Tuesday night as Xavi’s men look to finish the job they started last week in Paris. 

The La Liga side were impressive in a thrilling 3-2 clash at the Parc des Princes and should arrive into Tuesday’s second leg with a bigger lead.

However, Barca will be happy to have the advantage and with the home crowd behind them in Montjuic, the Spanish giants are fancied to go through to the semi-finals where they will face either Atletico Madrid or Borussia Dortmund.

Barcelona are in the midst of a great run of form and they continued that at the weekend with a 1-0 win over Cadiz.

For tonight’s match, Xavi has made one change from the first leg in Paris with Pedri replacing Sergi Roberto in midfield.

The Spain international assisted the equaliser off of the bench in the first leg and will be looking to have a similar impact on the match tonight.

As for PSG, the French giants had a lot of moments in the first leg but ultimately failed to control the match against Barcelona.

The Ligue 1 champions do not have a great record in the Champions League and will need Kylian Mbappe to turn up if they are to advance to the semi-finals.

The PSG superstar was poor last week at the Parc des Princes and having started on the left of a front three for Luis Enrique that night, the French star is up front for Tuesday’s game in Barcelona.

The Spanish coach’s team had no match at the weekend and has made three changes from their defeat in Paris with Lucas Berlado, Lee Kang-in and Marco Asensio coming out for Achraf Hakimi, Warren Zaire-Emery and Bradley Barcola.
