Team News

Borussia Dortmund will once again be without long term absentees Marco Reus (thigh) and Thomas Delaney (knee). Julian Brandt is also a doubt, having missed Friday’s win over Eintracht Frankfurt with an ankle injury.

Paris St. Germain have several injury concerns of their own. Thomas Tuchel said after his team’s 4-4 draw against Amiens that he was unsure whether star forward Neymar would be fit to feature on Tuesday.

PSG will also be without former Borussia Dortmund defender Abdou Diallo (thigh). Former Bayern left-back Juan Bernat made his return from injury off the bench against Amiens, but it remains to be seen if he will be fit enough to start on Tuesday.

Predicted Line-ups

Borussia Dortmund: Bürki – Piszczek, Hummels, Zagadou – Hakimi, Witsel, Can, Guerreiro – Hazard, Sancho, Haaland

Paris St. Germain: Navas – Meunier, Marquinhos, Silva, Kurzawa – Verratti, Gueye – Di Maria, Neymar – Mbappe, Icardi
