Aston Villa welcome recently crowned French league champions, Paris Saint-Germain, to Villa Park for a UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg clash, looking to overturn a 3-1 deficit from the first leg last week in Paris.
Match Odds
Prediction
The reverse fixture was the first time both teams have met, with PSG ultimately showing their class by coming from behind against a resilient Villa side. The Parisians will need to dig deep again in order to get over the hump against a tricky Villa side.
That’s why we have our money on both teams to score.

Team News
Former PSG boss, Unai Emery, could hand Ollie Watkins a return to the starting line-up following starring displays in recent games since returning from the sidelines. Leon Bailey could be part of the squad after missing the first leg, although he can hope for a place on the bench at best if included.
Marco Asensio, on loan from PSG, may settle for a place on the bench after missing two penalties over the weekend in the Premier League win at Southampton.
Luis Enrique has no new injuries for PSG having enjoyed a week to prepare without league football, and will welcome back Marquinhos to the starting line-up after the club captain missed the first leg through suspension.
