With a convincing 3-1 win in the all-round match, Paris Saint-Germain is calmly looking forward to the return confrontation against Aston Villa in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. The Parisian club, which has had an impressive dynamic since the beginning of the year, has a clear ambition: to consolidate its lead and win its ticket for the semi-finals. Aware of the hazards inherent in the competition and the surprises it has sometimes reserved, the technical supervision, led by Luis Enrique, wants to be rigorous and leaves nothing to chance in its preparation.

With a view to continuous improvement, the Spanish breeder is preparing to compose a team capable of meeting the tactical specificities expected of Aston Villa, who will come to his field with the imperative need to fill his deficit. Uncertainty about the composition of the 11 of the start, but rumours suggest that Bradley Barcola, potentially to the detriment of Désiré Doué, chosen during the match go for his ability to destabilize the defences combined. The former Lyonnais could thus bring valuable speed and responsiveness to exploit counter-attacks.

On the defensive level, a notable return is planned with the presence of Marquinhos, who should return to his place alongside Pacho after purging a suspension at the previous meeting. This consolidation of the central axis promises greater strength against the potential assaults of the English team, while allowing Paris Saint-Germain to continue its quest for a decisive victory and a qualification for the semi-finals of the prestigious European competition.
