Sports Innovation previews the Champions League match between PSG and Manchester City and offers team stats and betting tips with the latest odds.
In what is perhaps the biggest Champions League game this week, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City lock horns at the Parc des Princes on Tuesday night.
PSG are out for revenge after Manchester City eliminated them at the semi-final stage last season, winning 4-1 on aggregate across a two-legged tie. The Parisians began their Group A campaign with a 1-1 draw at Club Brugge. It left them in second place in the table on one point.

After losing last season’s final 1-0 to Chelsea, Pep Guardiola’s men aim to go one better. Seeing how they fare against PSG’s new star-studded squad should prove a worthy first test for their title credentials.
