Hot battle in Portugal. Paris Saint-Germain is currently playing host to Benfica Lisbon for a direct battle at the top of Beit H, where Maccabi Haifa is also playing at the same time against Juventus. Leo Messi and his teammates want to make a significant step to the round of 16 already within the third round at the homes of the champions.

The French champions arrive in an excellent mood, including seven consecutive victories in all competitions and excellent form in their trio, Leo Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe. The latter entered as a substitute in the last game and scored a winning goal in a 1:2 against Nice. In the previous match of the club from the City of Lights in the Champions League, Christophe Galtier’s team celebrated 1:3 over Maccabi Haifa at Sami Ofer.

On the other side of the fence, the team from Portugal finished 0:0 in their last league game against Victoria Guimarães, but they still lead the domestic league with 22 points from 24. In the Champions, the team in red beat Maccabi Haifa 0:2 in the first round and Juventus 1:2 in the second round, so they are in excellent shape for themselves in Europe.

The last time the teams met in the Champions League was in the 2013/14 season. Paris won at home 0:3 thanks to a brace from Zlatan Ibrahimovic and another goal from Marquinhos, now the captain of the French, while away it ended 1:2 to the host at the Stadium of Light, when Edinson Cavani’s temporary advantage was not enough. Who will end the evening at the top of house 8?
