teams head into Chelsea vs PSG<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea&#8217;s 2025\/26 Champions League campaign has seen a mixed performance thus far. In the league phase, the Blues secured five wins, one draw, and two losses, demonstrating a strong attacking presence with 19 goals scored and 15 conceded across nine matches. Key victories included a dominant 5-1 win against Ajax and a solid 3-0 triumph over Barcelona. Jo\u00e3o Pedro, Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez, and Estev\u00e3o have been instrumental in their scoring efforts, each netting three goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, their journey has hit a significant hurdle in the Round of 16. The first leg against Paris Saint-Germain on 11 March 2026 resulted in a challenging 5-2 defeat. Chelsea now faces a formidable task, needing to overcome a three-goal deficit in the upcoming second leg at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paris Saint-Germain&#8217;s 2025\/26 Champions League campaign has been marked by a strong offensive display and a commanding position in the knockout stages. In the league phase, PSG secured four wins, two draws, and two losses, ultimately finishing in a knockout play-off position. They demonstrated their attacking prowess with notable victories such as a 7-2 thrashing of Leverkusen and a 5-3 win against Tottenham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Advancing to the knockout phase play-offs, PSG overcame Monaco with a 5-4 aggregate score after a 3-2 away win and a 2-2 home draw. Their momentum continued into the Round of 16, where they delivered a decisive 5-2 victory over Chelsea in the first leg. With 31 goals scored and 17 conceded across 11 matches in the competition so far, PSG holds a significant three-goal advantage heading into the second leg against Chelsea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-chelsea-team-news\">Chelsea team news<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea faces significant squad challenges ahead of their Champions League second leg against Paris Saint-Germain. Estevao is a major doubt due to a hamstring injury, with manager Liam Rosenior hinting he won&#8217;t feature. Jamie Gittens is out with a recurring hamstring issue, not expected back until 21 March. Long-term absentee Levi Colwill remains sidelined with an ACL injury. These absences severely impact Chelsea&#8217;s options as they seek to overturn a three-goal deficit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-psg-team-news\">PSG team news<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paris Saint-Germain approaches their Champions League second leg against Chelsea with a largely stable squad. Manager Luis Enrique is expected to field a similar team to the first leg, having had no intervening fixtures. Midfielder Fabian Ruiz (knee) and winger Quentin Ndjantou (hamstring) are anticipated to be the only absentees. Key attacking talents like Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Desire Doue, Bradley Barcola, and Ousmane Dembele, all impactful in the first leg, present a strong selection for PSG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SquawkaBet\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"114\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-1024x114.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1415389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-1024x114.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-300x33.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-768x86.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-1536x171.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-400x45.jpg 400w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-600x67.jpg 600w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-538x60.jpg 538w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-150x17.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-40x4.jpg 40w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1.jpg 1792w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-head-to-head-last-5-meetings\">Head-to-Head: Last 5 Meetings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These teams met just last week, with PSG coming out on top in a seven-goal thriller.
