Real Madrid vs PSG: Team news & key stats
gettyReal Madrid duo Casemiro and Ferland Mendy picked yellow cards in Paris and are hence suspended for the tie. Toni Kroos missed the Real Sociedad win last weekend due to injury but is expected to make the squad at least.
For PSG, Sergio Ramos and Ander Herrera remain unavailable for the clash. However, Mauricio Pochettino will be relieved that Kylian Mbappe completed training after an injury scare recently.
Key Stats:
- Real Madrid have been eliminated from nine of their last 10 knockout ties in the UEFA Champions League when losing the first leg, with the exception being a 3-2 aggregate victory over VfL Wolfsburg in the 2015-16 quarter-final.
- Paris Saint-Germain are winless in their last four away matches in the UEFA Champions League (D2 L2). They last had a longer run without a win on the road in the competition between September 2000 and October 2012 (10 games).
- Karim Benzema has scored 12 goals in his last 11 UEFA Champions League home games for Real Madrid. Overall, he’s netted 64 goals for the Spanish side in the competition, behind only Cristiano Ronaldo (105) and Raúl (66).
- PSG’s Lionel Messi has failed to score in his last 695 minutes of action against Real Madrid in all competitions, since scoring for Barcelona in May 2018. The Argentine had his penalty saved against them in the first leg, which was his fifth penalty failure in the UEFA Champions League (from 23 taken, excluding shootouts).
- Since his debut in the competition in September 2013, PSG’s Neymar has provided more assists than any other player in the UEFA Champions League (27). Six of these have been for Kylian Mbappé – including one in the first leg – which is his most for a single teammate in the competition.
