Last season's beaten finalists Paris Saint-Germain continue their quest for Champions League glory on Tuesday when they travel to Barcelona for the first leg of their last-16 tie.
Mauricio Pochettino will take charge of a Champions League match with PSG for the first time this week, after the Ligue 1 champions topped Group H to safely secure their passage into the next round under Thomas Tuchel.
The visitors head to Catalonia having won eight of their last nine games in all competitions, including a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Nice in Ligue 1 at the weekend.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of PSG's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their trip to Barcelona.
