International cups are a highlight for most teams. Both Paris Saint Germain and RB Leipzig are looking forward to this Champions League fight to decide who advances from the Group Stage.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Paris Saint Germain and RB Leipzig.

It's quite the trip for RB Leipzig when visiting Paris Saint Germain as the cities are 900 kilometers apart.

Paris Saint Germain form and stats

Paris was eliminated in the semi-finals last season in the Champions League. Manchester City was too strong.

Paris Saint Germain have collected 15 points from their Ligue 1 home games so far after 5-0-0. After failing to beat Lille here at Parc des Princes, Paris has put together a very nice winning streak on their own turf with eight wins in a row.

A nice win for Paris last time playing, versus Angers SCO. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with Kylian Mbappé and Danilo Pereira scoring for the victors. The forward Kylian Mbappé bested all others in that game and received a match rating of 8.84 out of 10. Mbappé scored one goal, served one assist, hit three key passes and had 35 successful passes (of 43 total).

A Ligue 1 defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Rennes.

Paris are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (14 goals in 5 games). Paris Saint Germain have only conceded 4 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

RB Leipzig form and stats

Leipzig's mission in Champions League last season failed in the 8th finals against Liverpool.

The visitors are W0-D2-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Bundesliga. RB Leipzig has drawn their two previous away games.

Leipzig has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Freiburg for a Bundesliga game that ended a draw (1-1). Midfield player Dominik Szoboszlai was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.31/10. Szoboszlai hit three key passes.

The game before that, in the Champions League, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Club Brugge.

A new game in only four days for Leipzig, the Bundesliga home match versus Greuther Furth. Busy days.

RB Leipzig are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 4 away games. 4 goals have been conceded by RB Leipzig in these games.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head statistics (for the preceeding three meetings): Paris won two games, zero matches ended with a draw and RB Leipzig managed one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: two / one
