Paris Saint-Germain will be aiming to usurp Manchester United as group leaders in the Champions League when the French champions travel to Old Trafford for Wednesday's mouth-watering showdown.
Thomas Tuchel's men picked up a crucial victory over RB Leipzig last week to leave themselves second in Group H ahead of the penultimate round of fixtures, with United currently three points clear at the top after four games.
PSG have already tasted defeat to the Red Devils on their own turf this season, and Tuchel's side also failed to win at the Parc des Princes in their most recent league fixture, with Bordeaux holding the champions to a 2-2 draw on Saturday evening.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up PSG's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's trip to Man United.
