Jose Mourinho will be hoping to pick his Chelsea squad up after a horrific loss to Crystal Palace in the Premier League, which has ruled the blues out of the title race for many. In fact, Mourinho’s men have hit a blip when playing away with just one win out of their last six in all competitions. They face a PSG side that are unbeaten in 28 home European matches and are currently on a winning streak of nine matches.

“I will not play this game. It is my choice. Mourinho is going to talk, to comment, it’s the way he operates. We’re going to have to play a great game against a great team and a great coach.”

Laurent Blanc – PSG Manager

The Blues will be heavily reliant on Fernando Torres who has not scored since the away leg to Galatasaray, in the previous round of the Champions League. Samuel Eto’o has been in fine form, but suffered a hamstring injury a few weeks ago.
