With Erling Haaland and Jadon Sancho leading Borussia Dortmund, and Kylian Mbappe and Neymar headlining Paris St. Germain’s attack, we could be in for a high-scoring game at the Parc des Princes.

Add the return of Thomas Tuchel to Dortmund to the mix, and we have all the ingredients of a mouth-watering Champions League tie. Borussia Dortmund are undoubtedly the underdogs going into the game, but they have the all important lead going into the second leg.

Ahead of the second leg of the tie, we round up the best combined XI featuring players from both sides in a 4-2-2-2 formation, and this attack could blow teams out of the water week in, week out.
