The Argentine has been in a great form ever since the new season began, bagging 4 goals and 2 assists in 4 La Liga appearances for the Spanish champions and he will be aiming to help Barcelona to a successful campaign in the European tournament, following their bitter exit from the competition last season.
On his day, Messi is capable of destroying any team all by himself and PSV is no exception - with his ability to destroy opposition defences using his intelligent movement, electrifying dribbling skills, immense creativity and the ability to send the ball into the back of the net with great ease.
