After a competitive first leg in the French capital, Bayern Munich will hope to seal Champions League progress as they host Paris Saint-Germain.

Kingsley Coman struck against his former club to earn the German side a 1-0 lead entering their home half of the encounter.

PSG have since suffered a major blow with Neymar ruled out for the remainder of the season after undergoing ankle surgery.

It makes a quarter-final place look even tougher to achieve for a club still seeking that elusive continental crown.

Here’s everything you need to know.

When is Bayern Munich vs PSG?

Bayern Munich vs PSG is due to kick off at 8pm GMT on Wednesday 8 March at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany.

How can I watch it?

Viewers in the United Kingdom can watch the match live on BT Sport 2, with coverage on the channel from 7.15pm GMT. Subscribers can stream the action via the BT Sport app or online player.

Bayern Munich will be without Benjamin Pavard, who is suspended, with Josip Stanisic in line to deputise on the right of Julian Nagelsmann’s defensive three. Noussair Mazraoui recently took a break from football due to a heart issue and may not yet be ready to return, while Manuel Neuer and Lucas Hernandez are long-term absentees.
