PSG go into the match a Group A leaders, one point ahead of second-placed Manchester City, who play Club Brugge in another fixture. Leipzig lost all of its opening three games as they struggle to rebuild under American coach Jesse Marsch after losing key players in the summer transfer window.

The last time PSG and Leipzig met each other in the ongoing competition, the Ligue 1 giants had the upper hand as goals from Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe helped their cause. With Manchester City sniffing around, a slip up against Leipzig will cost PSG dearly.

Meanwhile, Manchester City, last season’s runner-up, can take a big step toward the last 16 by claiming a second successive victory over Brugge. Pep Guardiola’s squad won 5-1 in Belgium two weeks ago and a repeat at the Etihad Stadium would put City in a strong position to qualify.

But City go into the encounter after a couple of difficult results. City’s four-year reign as League Cup holders was ended by West Ham last week and the Premier League champions also had a surprise loss to Crystal Palace on Saturday.
