If Chelsea play their negative/park the bus football, the match will end in a boring draw.If they come out and play good football, they will lose.

Official match preview ---- Source : BBC


Paris St-Germain have a number of injury
concerns for the visit of Chelsea in the first
leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.
Four players suffered injuries in the 2-2 draw
with Caen at the weekend, as Yohan Cabaye,
Marquinhos and Serge Aurier all went off
injured in the game, while Lucas had a groin
problem.
John Mikel Obi is a doubt for Chelsea because
of a knee problem.
Oscar, meanwhile, has recovered from a
muscular injury and could feature.
Defender David Luiz helped Chelsea overcome
PSG in the quarter-finals of last year's
Champions League, but he will line up for the
French side on Tuesday.
The Brazil international moved from Stamford
Bridge to Paris last summer in a £50m deal.
"I want to qualify, like I qualified last year, but
I want to qualify for PSG," he said.
"If I score against Chelsea I won't celebrate
out of respect, but I will be happy."
Luiz won the Champions League with Chelsea
in 2012 and helped them to the Europa
League title the following year.
Since his departure, Diego Costa, Cesc
Fabregas and Filipe Luis have all joined the
Blues.
"They had three players join the club with
amazing quality. For me they are stronger
than last year," he added.

Addendum ----

Chelsea will be heading into their
UEFA Champions League second
round tie with a lot more
confidence after this weekend than
when the draw was made back in
December.
The Blues had the weekend off to
recover from Wednesday’s 89th-
minute win over Everton at
Stamford Bridge, whilst the FA Cup
fifth round took place.
On Saturday evening, nine-man
Paris Saint-Germain blew a late
2-0 lead to draw at home to Caen
as Laurent Blanc’s side suffered
four injuries.
Team News
Paris Saint-Germain
Yohan Cabaye, Marquinhos, Serge
Aurier and Lucas Moura all limped
off at the weekend, although only
Lucas is a regular in Blanc’s first
team. Marquinhos has started 14
of PSG’s 25 Ligue 1 fixtures this
season but only three in the
Champions League, with David Luiz
and Thiago Luiz the preferred
option.
Javier Pastore is also out injured
for the defending French
champions.
Chelsea
José Mourinho’s side were late
winners when these two met in the
quarter-final last season. His
squad has been greatly improved
this season and are currently seven
points clear at the top of the
Premier League .
Paris Saint-Germain dominated the
French league last season but head
into Tuesday’s fixture in third
position despite spending £50
million on David Luiz from over the
summer and not losing any key
players.
The Portuguese manager only has
John Obi Mikel ruled out, although
Oscar is a doubt, as Chelsea head
into the first leg with a much
healthier squad.
Predicted Lineups
Lucas Moura would be a big loss
for the hosts if he is not passed fit.
However, the attacking trio they
have in his place aren’t too
shabby. Zlatan Ibrahimović has
proven himself at the highest level
over the years, Edinson Cavani is a
top player and Ezequiel Lavezzi is
targeted by a number of top teams
as he is often a backup in Paris.
They all know where they back of
the net is. Laurent Blanc’s side
play a 4-3-3 with three central
midfielders. Blaise Matuidi offers a
bundle of energy, Marco Verratti is
a talent but very rarely involved in
the goals and does give a few
cheap fouls away in his own half.
Thiago Motta is a talented and
experienced protector of the back
four. Mourinho will probably see
David Luiz as a big vulnerability in
the Paris Saint-Germain team and
knows his game well. Gregory van
der Wiel has not been in the best of
form of late. He’s tasked with
facing Eden Hazard.
Petr Čech started midweek as
Thibaut Courtois has made a
couple of errors of late. Mourinho
did say he wanted Čech’s
experience to face Everton but we
think he’ll retain his place for this
match. We’re going with the
experienced Gary Cahill to start
ahead of Kurt Zouma too. Ramires
to play alongside Nemanja Matić to
protect the back four whilst Cesc
Fàbregas plays with the three
attacking midfielders behind Diego
Costa.
Key Matchups
Eden Hazard vs Gregory van der
Wiel
The Chelsea star is in a good place
to put in a man of the match
performance. We’re assuming Serge
Aurier doesn’t recover from his
injury at the weekend and that
Gregory van der Wiel goes back
into the starting XI. The Dutch
right-back has been a good player
over the years but cannot be
expected to be the big attacking
threat he has previously been
whilst having the duties of keeping
Eden Hazard quiet. He’s also out
of form of late so Hazard may tear
him apart at the Parc des Princes.
Diego Costa vs David Luiz
Few were in praise of David Luiz
when he left Chelsea in the
summer. Many considered the
Brazilian a liability for the Blues in
the most competitive football
division in world football. Diego
Costa hasn’t played for a few
weeks following his three-match
ban. The Spanish striker is fully fit
and his movement should see him
find space from the former Chelsea
defender in the middle of PSG’s
defence with Luiz not being the
best marker. Luiz is also poor at
marking from set pieces which is
another area for Chelsea to take
advantage of.
Zlatan Ibrahimović vs Gary Cahill
Zlatan Ibrahimović’s record against
English side ‘s in the Champions
League is quite shabby with only
three goals in 16 appearances, and
all of those goals coming against
Arsenal. He only got 68 minutes
over the two legs last season due
to injury. His threat shouldn’t be
ignored as the Swede provides
moments of magic and goals out of
nowhere. He should have decent
supply in this match, mainly from
the wings.
Prediction: Paris Saint-Germain
1-2 Chelsea
Neither side have been at their best
in 2015 but we’re leaning towards
Chelsea to take a big advantage
back with them to Stamford Bridge.
Expecting José Mourinho to have a
game plan for his side to get the
better of both David Luiz and
Gregory van der Wiel in particular ,
as well as set pieces. PSG haven’t
been convincing in their own
league of late and should Lucas
Moura not be fit it’s a massive
loss in creativity.
