An unmissable Champions League encounter beckons at the Parc des Princes with the backdrop of a riotous French capital, as holders Paris Saint-Germain host La Liga leaders Barcelona on Tuesday.
Both teams are two for two at the start of the league phase, and the back-to-back champions are the early pace-setters after putting Slovan Bratislava and Manchester City to the sword. Luis Enrique’s side were sensational in the opening 35 minutes of last week’s tie, racing into a 3–0 lead against a City team that had been perfect after eight games in all competitions.
PSG were eventually made to work for three points, claiming a 4–2 victory, yet the display served as a reminder of their majesty after a subdued start to Ligue 1.
And they were far from their best on the domestic front again at the weekend, with Enrique’s side staging a late surge to bypass Strasbourg 3–1. They’re now up to second, and have rattled off six consecutive victories since losing to Monaco on Sept. 4.
Barcelona, meanwhile, are continuing to soar. The back-to-back La Liga champions have enjoyed a record-equaling start to their campaign, becoming just the second team in the competition’s history to win their opening nine games of the season by thumping Real Betis 5–2 at the weekend.
Emphatic victories over Feyenoord and Galatasaray have complemented their supremacy on the home front, with the club desperate to claim a first Champions League crown in over a decade to cement Flick’s side as one of the great modern-day teams.
