Paris Saint-Germain welcome Benfica to the French capital in midweek Champions League action in a clash that could decide top spot in Group H.

The two sides battled out a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture in Lisbon last week with goalkeepers Gianluigi Donnarumma and Odysseas Vlachodimos producing key performances.

That result has done little to change the picture in Group H, with the top two on seven points each after three games played. PSG have a slight edge on goals scored.

A win for either team will put them in the driving seat for the knockout stages with Juventus struggling to keep pace with them.
