Match Preview

The Ligue 1 champions overcame a tough first half to win 2-0 in the initial match, and now they face Real Sociedad, who have endured recent disappointments in knockout competitions.

Real Sociedad, trailing by two goals, have a challenging task ahead.

Their past record in knockout rounds doesn’t bode well, with defeats like the 1-0 loss to Lyon in 2003-04 being their only other knockout appearance since 1992.

Unfortunately, Real Sociedad’s recent form has been worrisome, suffering losses in three consecutive matches, including a painful Copa del Rey defeat in penalties.

Their struggles continued with a 3-2 loss to Sevilla in La Liga, making it just one win in their last nine games across all competitions.

On the contrary, PSG aims to break free from their last-16 jinx in the Champions League.

With a strong 20-game unbeaten streak, they look to avoid a collapse at Reale Arena and move closer to the elusive European crown.
