Barcelona manager, Ronald Koeman is optimistic that his club can defeat Paris St Germain at the Parc des Princes tonight to qualify for their 14th consecutive quater-final of the UEFA Champions League.
Recall that Kylian Mbappe scored a hattrick as PSG thrashed Barcelona 4-1 in the first leg.
“Losing 4-1 at home means we have to score goals away from home and it’s more complicated but nothing is impossible,” said Ronald Koeman.
In the 2016-17 season, PSG defeated Barcelona 4-0 in the last 16 first leg in Paris, but were eliminated after the crumbled 6-1 to Barcelona in the second leg. Will history repeat itself?
Meanwhile, both teams will be missing the services of some of their finest players. Neymar will not be involved in the match even though he has started light training after recovering from a thigh injury.
Barcelona will miss the services of Gerald Pique and Ronald Araujo due to knee and ankle injuries respectively.
