Bayern Munich and PSG lock horns in the Champions League on Tuesday in a rematch of the 2020 final, which was won by the German team.
There will be pressure on both teams to ensure their progression through to the next stage. Bayern bounced back from a heavy defeat in Barcelona with a narrow home success over Benfica on matchday four.
However, there will be mounting pressure on Luis Enrique’s PSG. The Parisians come into this round sitting 25th in the standings after winning just once in four matches. Last time out, they were beaten in Paris by Atletico Madrid.

It could be hard to overlook the home win, with Bayern Munich priced up at -170 on the moneyline. A victory for PSG is the outside selection at +390.
