"Chelsea won 3-0 when the sides met in the Club World Cup final last summer. PSG have been inconsistent recently, losing 3-1 at home to Monaco in their last game while Chelsea have climbed to fifth in the Premier League under new boss Liam Rosenior."
"Chelsea have picked Filip Jorgensen in goal as Robert Sanchez drops to the bench, with captain Reece James starting in midfield once again. Winger Willian Estevao has resumed training but is not fit enough to feature, and Jamie Gittens is unavailable."
"PSG failed to make the top eight in the Champions League group phase and had to rely on an unconvincing two-legged defeat of Monaco to make this stage. The sides last faced in the Champions League in the last 16 in 2015-16, with the French side winning both legs 2-1."
Chelsea travels to Paris for the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against holders PSG. Chelsea defeated PSG 3-0 in the Club World Cup final last summer and currently sit fifth in the Premier League under manager Liam Rosenior. PSG have shown inconsistency, losing 3-1 at home to Monaco recently and narrowly qualifying for this stage after an unconvincing two-legged playoff. Chelsea makes a goalkeeping change, selecting Filip Jorgensen over Robert Sanchez, with captain Reece James starting in midfield. PSG will be without Fabian Ruiz and Quentin Ndjantou but hope Joao Neves is available. The teams last met in the Champions League last-16 in 2015-16, with PSG winning both legs 2-1.
