Football: Paris Saint-Germain v Chelsea factfile

Factfile on Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea ahead of their Champions League quarter-final first-leg tie on Wednesday:

Form: Having been eliminated by Barcelona on away goals in the quarter-finals last season, PSG are looking to go one better and reach the last four in the Champions League for the first time since 1995. Laurent Blanc's side come into the game at the Parc des Princes in great shape, having beaten Nice 1-0 on Friday to record a club record ninth consecutive win in all competitions. That left them needing just three more wins from their last seven matches to secure a second consecutive Ligue 1 title, and they also have a League Cup final against Lyon to look forward to later this month. In contrast, Chelsea's 1-0 defeat at Crystal Palace on Saturday led manager Jose Mourinho to declare that they could no longer win the Premier League title. A day later, Liverpool replaced them at the top of the table and they would fall four points behind Manchester City if Manuel Pellegrini's side win their two games in hand. However, Mourinho's experience at this level is second to none, and that could give the English club the edge.
