Paris St. Germain and Borussia Dortmund meet at the Parc des Princes for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League round of 16 tie on Wednesday.

Borussia Dortmund enjoyed a 2-1 victory over PSG in the first leg of the round of 16 tie between the two sides, courtesy of an Erling Haaland brace. But despite their impressive performance in the first leg last month, Lucien Favre and his team will know that the tie is far from over heading into the second leg in Paris.

PSG managed to get an away goal at the Westfalenstadion, and have one of Europe’s most devastating strike forces. So the Black and Yellows have to defend gallantly for 90 minutes and be incisive on the counter attack if they are to secure their passage into the quarterfinals.

With so much on the line, both teams will be determined to fight hard and get the desired result to take them through to the next round. Here we look at some of the key battles that could shape the outcome of this massive clash.
