Real Madrid will travel to the Parc des Princes to take on PSG in the first leg of the Champions League Round of 16, and surely they have not forgotten the embarrassment they suffered the last time they played at this venue.
Already, Los Blancos have enough bad memories to erase in 2022. They lost to Getafe, then to Athletic Bilbao in the Copa del Rey. And this weekend, Real dropped more points, drawing Villarreal 0-0 due to a myriad of missed chances and another woeful first half performance.
Madridistas will hope Karim Benzema and Ferland Mendy, two crucial starters, will be able to return to the starting lineup this Tuesday night against PSG.
Paris Saint-Germain stars Neymar and Sergio Ramos have been left out of the team's squad for their Ligue 1 match Rennes on Friday, just four days before their Champions League game against Real Madrid.
Neymar has not played since November after suffering a ligament injury in November, whilst Ramos is recovering from a minor calf injury.
Coach Mauricio Pochettino has not ruled out Neymar making an appearance during Tuesday night's big clash against Los Blancos.
"We'll see if it can happen," Pochettino told the press. "That's the idea. All the big guys want to play in the big games.
"He already knows what it's like to arrive injured at these games and has the maturity to channel his energy and play in the best conditions when he's available."
PSG are 13 points clear at the top of Ligue 1, despite drawing their last two league games.
