Paris Saint-Germain v Brest preview
PSG swept into a seemingly-commanding first-leg lead last week, with in-form forward Ousmane Dembele scoring twice in a 3-0 away win.
They have progressed from 17 of the previous 18 times they have won the first leg of a Europan tie away from home, failing only against Manchester United in the 2018-19 Champions League.
The Parisians reached the final of the Champions League in 2020 – losing to Bayern Munich – but remain on the hunt for their first title.
Luis Enrique ahead of Brest tomorrow night:
“We must forget the first-leg result and our only goal is to win the second leg. It's our duty to want to win this game."#UCL | #PSGSB29 pic.twitter.com/95CZnzW2wO

No side has ever progressed from a two-legged Champions League knockout stage tie having lost the first leg at home by three or more goals so Brest will have to make history to reach the last 16.

No side has ever achieved what Brest need to do to quality – and PSG are in fine form. Expect Ousmane Dembele to shine again in a comfortable enough 2-1 home win.
PSG 2-1 Brest.
