2. Chelsea v PSG
This tie has been played before, but we can never get bored of it. It’s always been a fun match to watch as a neutral, and it would be interesting to see how it pans out this time round with both teams facing significant changes.
This tie has been played 8 times in the Champions League, with Chelsea winning on just 2 occasions. They’ve only beaten PSG on Parisian soil one, and that came way back in 2004. However, under Antonio Conte, they will feel like there’s no better time.

PSG are strong contenders for this years Champions League, after they’ve built up quite the fiery attack. Neymar will look to provide the flair to get past Antonio Conte’s defence, and that matched with Edison Cavani’s intelligence is enough to make anybody scared.
However, if anyone is to match the Neymar and Cavani partnership, it would be Eden Hazard and Alvaro Morata, who are very similar to their PSG counterparts.
My prediction
I wouldn’t overlook Chelsea, but if this was to be a Champions League draw, my eyes would turn towards PSG.
