PSG vs Man Utd
Uefa Champions League 2018-19 | Round of 16, second leg
Venue: Parc des Princes, Paris
Date: Wednesday, March 6, 2019
Kick-off: 8pm GMT
Manchester United have it all to do as they head to Paris needing to stage another famous Champions League comeback against Paris Saint-Germain.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Red Devils went into the first leg of their last-16 tie full of confidence, but the French giants took the wind out of United's sails with a comprehensive 2-0 win at Old Trafford.
That result leaves PSG as heavy favourites to reach the quarter-finals - especially with United missing a number of key players through injury and suspension - but if anybody can inspire a European comeback against the odds, it is United's 1999 Treble hero Solskjaer.
PSG vs Man Utd team news and predicted line-ups
United face Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Wednesday with Solskjaer facing an injury crisis.
Ander Herrera, Jesse Lingard, Nemanja Matic, Anthony Martial, Juan Mata, Phil Jones and Antonio Valencia are also out.
United will also be without the suspended Paul Pogba, while Alexis Sanchez is out for up to eight weeks with knee ligament damage.
Man Utd XI (4-4-2): De Gea; Young, Smalling, Lindelof, Shaw; Dalot, McTominay, Pereira, Fred; Lukaku Rashford
PSG coach Thomas Tuchel will still be without star man Neymar due to a metatarsal injury, but the French champions will likely opt for the same compact system which worked brilliantly at Old Trafford.
Edinson Cavani could be available after missing the first leg through injury, but may more likely be used as an option from the bench if PSG need a goal in the second half.
PSG XI: Buffon, Kehrer, Kimpembe, Silva, Bernat, Alves, Di Maria, Marquinhos, Verratti, Draxler, Mbappe
Score prediction: PSG 2-2 Man Utd
United struggled to test PSG at all in the first leg, but Solskjaer may opt for a more direct approach with Lukaku in fine goalscoring form.
The Red Devils should score in Paris and could well trouble Tuchel's side given PSG's reputation for struggling when the going gets tough in the Champions League, but the likes of Mbappe and Di Maria should prove to be too much for United's defence to handle again.
