"Starting with the hosts, making real history last season as they stormed their way to an iconic maiden Champions League crown, it is no secret that PSG have their sole focus set to defending their European trophy this time around. Despite suffering real frustration earlier in the month as they slumped to a 2-1 loss at home against German giants Bayern Munich, it appears that was just a blip for Luis Enrique's superstar squad."
"Picking up an ankle injury prior to November's fortnight interval, PSG will once again be without defensive talisman Achraf Hakimi on Wednesday night. However, in what could prove to be a huge boost for the reigning European champions here, newly-crowned Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele could play some part after dealing with a recent calf issue. Settling for a spot on the bench against Le Havre over the weekend, former Napoli ace Khvicha Kvaratskhelia should be handed a full recall."
PSG are reigning Champions League winners focused on defending their European trophy while hosting Tottenham in Paris. PSG endured a 2-1 home loss to Bayern Munich earlier in the month but claimed a 2-1 victory at Barcelona on October 1 and returned from the international break with a 3-0 win over Le Havre. PSG possess a reputation for clinical performances in the final third. Achraf Hakimi remains sidelined with an ankle injury, while Ousmane Dembele could feature after a calf issue. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Marquinhos are expected to return. Tottenham have struggled after an encouraging start under Thomas Frank.
