PSG are currently third in Ligue 1 and are already in the Champions League round of 16, where they face a strong test.

Pochettino’s men will take on Barcelona in February and March, with hope of defeating the Spanish giants and going all the way to the final, where they reached last season before losing to winners Bayern Munich.
