PSG vs Bayern UEFA Champions League Quarterfinals: Prediction, team news, Probable Lineups, Head to head, PSG vs FCB Live Streaming details;
Staring down the barrel of elimination in the Champions League, holders Bayern Munich will endeavour to overturn a 3-2 deficit from the first leg of their quarter-final with Paris Saint-Germain when they do battle in the French capital on Tuesday.
An enthralling five-goal encounter at the Allianz Arena ended with Mauricio Pochettino’s side claiming a slender lead at half time in the tie, and the two continental giants head into the game following differing fortunes in their domestic title defences.

PSG duo Alessandro Florenzi and Marco Verratti have returned to training after returning negative coronavirus tests, but Pochettino is unlikely to risk either man from the first whistle, although he has admitted that the right-back is in with a higher chance of featuring.
Danilo Pereira could therefore deputise at centre-back once again, especially with Leandro Paredes back from suspension and ready to start in midfield, while Pochettino will also hope to welcome Abdou Diallo back after a bout of sickness.
Keylor Navas had to be replaced at half time against Strasbourg due to a reported muscular issue, so the loss of the in-form Costa Rican would be a devastating blow for the hosts.

Bayern Munich Predicted Lineup:

Neither PSG nor Bayern will be able to field their strongest XIs in the French capital, but with some of the game’s brightest talents on show – all equally hungry for continental success – fans and neutrals alike should prepare for yet another mesmerising encounter between the champions and the challengers.
