PSG host Rennes at the Parc des Princes in Ligue 1 action on Sunday, looking to extend their winning run in the league to five games.
The Parisians needed an extra-time winner from Kylian Mbappe to beat Brest last weekend as the side were perhaps still reeling from their European heartbreak.
Christophe Galtier's side were knocked out in the round of 16 of the Champions League by Bayern Munich, who prevailed 3-0 on aggregate, beating the French champions in both legs.
Their attention is now on winning domestically, with the league title up for grabs, where PSG hold a healthy 10-point lead over arch-rivals Marseille.
Trending
Rennes, meanwhile, have alternated between wins and defeats for most of their games since December, but were most recently held to a 0-0 draw by Auxerre.
This has seen them drop to fifth position in the Ligue 1 standings with 47 points from 27 games, having once emerged as a contender for the Champions League places.
