Will Messi-Mbappe be able to turn around today?

No matter how successful the French league is, PSG's main focus is still on the Champions League. Messi-Mbappe's campaign on the European stage of excellence will end today, or at least survive for another round - it will be known in tonight's match against Bayern Munich. PSG will face the German champions in the second leg of the last sixteen in Munich.Messi-Mbappe are supposed to turn around because of the first leg. PSG lost 1-0 to Bayern in that match held in Paris. To make it to the quarter-finals, you have to pay for today's goal and stay ahead by one more goal. If you are ahead by at least one goal in the 90th minute game, the match can be taken in extra time. Due to the absence of away goal system, the team that is ahead of the two legs will make it to the last eight.The past accounts of the two teams before going to the field, however, do not speak for PSG. In the Champions League knockouts, Bayern has won the first leg 22 times, 20 times in the next stage. On the contrary, PSG has lost the first leg 6 times, including this time in the knockout phase, and has been able to reach the next stage only once.

However, PSG have memories of winning the last match of the Champions League played at Bayern's ground. The French club won 3-2 in that match of the 2020-21 quarter-finals.

PSG fans are still expecting something similar around Messi-Mbappe.
