Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City clash in Paris in a bid to avert UEFA Champions League catastrophe.
Two of the continent's most financially powerful clubs have struggled to find their best form under the inaugural league phase format and are facing elimination heading into the penultimate matchweek.
City arrive in the French capital occupying 24th place, the final spot that will allow a team to progress to next month's playoff round. PSG, led by Pep Guardiola's former team-mate and great friend Luis Enrique, are a point and two places worse off with a four-goal deficit on goal difference to City.
Each team have theoretically more straightforward matches to conclude the league phase next week, placing a high price on victory tonight.
