Prediction
- PSG have a huge 4-goal advantage going into the game but are likely to field a strong side nevertheless, with the opportunity to offer some returning players some minutes in the second half.
- Bayer Leverkusen are in dismal form and will be playing for pride alone, with progression to the quarter-finals well out of the German outfit's reach.
- The hosts will look to take a lead into half time and undoubtedly have the quality to do so. A big aggregate win would be a warning shot to the rest of the sides left in the competition.
