    Paris Saint-Germain
    • Luis Enrique will hope to have Ousmane Dembele available for selection after the Frenchman suffered a hamstring injury in the first leg.
    • Goncalo Ramos is in line to deputise for Dembele on the frontline if needs must.
    • Presnel Kimpembe is missing for the home side, who may be unchanged from first leg, Dembele's fitness permitting.
    Arsenal
    • Jurrien Timber missed the 2-1 loss to Bournemouth on Saturday and is a doubt for Wednesday's game in Paris.
    • Riccardo Calafiori and Martin Odegaard will also be assessed, while Gabriel Jesus, Takehiro Tomiyasui, Kai Havertz, Gabriel and Jorginho miss out.
    • Thomas Partey missed the first leg defeat due to a ban, yet is expected to start in the middle of the park.
  • Prediction

    PSG followed up their 1-0 win at the Emirates last week with a 2-1 loss at Strasbourg, though head coach Luis Enrique did make 10 changes to the side that started the victory at the Emirates. Even so, Saturday's defeat means PSG have won only two of their last six matches.

    Arsenal, meanwhile, lost 2-1 at home to Bournemouth as they failed to bounce back from the 1-0 first leg defeat. The Gunners have now failed to win their last three in all competitions, but have won their last two on the road, which includes a 2-1 win at Real Madrid.

    PSG are in control of the tie and should feel confident about getting the job done on home turf.
