Bayer Leverkusen v PSG: Line-ups, stats and preview
""PSG are perhaps the best team in the world," Hjulmand said. "They have won five trophies in this calendar year. We have a lot of respect for them and it will be a difficult task. But we're also looking forward to it, because Champions League matches are always great. We're at home and are determined to show our qualities. We'll give everything to win.""
""PSG are a team with top quality in all positions and all phases of the game. They have a good build-up from the back, are direct and quick, are good one-on-one and very aggressive when pressing. It's a weapon of theirs, but it also brings risks and opportunities for us. We have confidence in our own game and I think we will have our chances.""
Kasper Hjulmand has steadied Bayer Leverkusen and the team remain unbeaten in seven games under his management. Leverkusen will host Paris Saint-Germain in a Champions League match that presents a major test against the defending European champions. PSG claimed five trophies this calendar year, won their maiden Champions League last season and reached the Club World Cup final. PSG possess top quality across positions, combine build-up play with direct pace, strong one-on-one ability and very aggressive pressing that creates risks and openings. Leverkusen won 4-3 at Mainz, have not lost since the opening day, endured summer changes including Xabi Alonso's departure and are beginning to gel while identifying areas for improvement after each game.
