The UEFA Champions League is back in action with another round of matches this week as PSG lock horns with Stefano Pioli's AC Milan side in a crucial encounter at the San Siro on Tuesday.
AC Milan vs PSG Preview
PSG are currently in second place in the Ligue 1 standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The Parisian outfit eased past Montpellier by a comfortable 3-0 scoreline over the weekend and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
AC Milan, on the other hand, are in third place in the Serie A table at the moment and have been impressive over the past year. The Rossoneri slumped to a narrow 1-0 defeat at the hands of Udinese in their previous game and will need to bounce back this week.
