Following a thrilling first leg clash, it's Borussia Dortmund who take a slender 1-0 advantage into the second match.

Despite the scoreline, PSG won't be too worried. In the quarter-final, the Parisians were in the same position against Barcelona and came away victorious thanks to a deadly second-leg display.

This Tuesday night, Luis Enrique and his men will be cheered on by an expectant crowd at Parc des Princes.

PSG are a club who have held Champions League winning aspirations for a number of years, only to fall short every season.

Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, will feel a lot less pressure. Considering their poor domestic season, few expected the Black and Yellows to make it this far.

Dortmund were heavy underdogs from the beginning and all the weight of expectation is on the opposition.

Despite this, we're backing the hosts to get the job done. BVB have never won or even scored away at PSG.

What's more, the Parisians have found the back of the net in 36 of their last 38 Champions League matches at home.

This is shaping up to be a dramatic semi-final finale and we're backing PSG to book their ticket to Wembley. PSG to score first is another recommendation.

 

Team news

PSG head into Tuesday's fixture without Lucas Hernandez, Presnel Kimpembe and Sergio Rico.

BVB, meanwhile, will be missing the injured duo of Ramy Bensebaini and Julien Duranville.
