Where to watch live
Kick-off is set for 7.45pm GMT. The game will
be broadcast live on BT Sport Extra.
Overview
Real Madrid retained top spot in the La Liga
table at the weekend as goals from Isco,
Cristiano Ronaldo and Jese gave them a 3-1
home win over Las Palmas. The Castilian side
have the best defensive record in the Spanish
top flight, with just four goals conceded in their
10 matches to date.
Real have not lost a competitive match since
their defeat to Juventus in the first leg of last
season's Champions League semi-final in May.
The hosts are also on an eight-match
unbeaten run against French opponents,
winning five and drawing three.
Keylor Navas and Sergio Ramos are both
expected to start against Paris Saint-Germain
after they sat out the win over Las Palmas
with minor knocks. Dani Carvajal (ankle) and
Karim Benzema (hamstring) could also return,
but Luka Modric (hip) is a doubt.
Laurent Blanc's Paris Saint-Germain are
unbeaten across all competitions this season,
winning all but three of their fixtures to date.
The Parisians have a 10-point lead at the top
of Ligue 1, with former Real star Angel Di
Maria scoring at the weekend to give them a
narrow win at Rennes.
Defender David Luiz is racing to recover from
a knee problem for the trip to Spain, while
attacking midfielder Javier Pastore (illness)
could also return.
