Chelsea take on the visitors PSG in the second leg of UEFA Champions League round of 1/8-finals. First leg result: 2-5. The match will be played on Tuesday, March 17th at Stamford Bridge (London).
Chelsea beat the Parisians in the summer — and in dominant fashion — in the final of the FIFA Club World Cup. That triumph concluded Enzo Maresca’s first year in London, during which he had already won the Europa Conference League and returned the team to 4th place in the Premier League. Recently Chelsea have shown mixed results in domestic competitions, alternating convincing victories with unexpected setbacks. Their matches have often been high-intensity affairs, reflecting the demanding schedule across several tournaments. However, stability was still lacking, both in performances and in relations with the club’s management — and the Italian was dismissed around the New Year. Roseniour has generally been coping with the task, although there have been slip-ups in the Premier League, and in the League Cup semifinals the team had nothing to offer against Arsenal. Under him they finished the Champions League league phase with victories, including one away at Napoli. As a result, the playoffs only began last week. In the first leg they scored twice in Paris but still ended up losing heavily — 2–5.

Paris Saint-Germain will try to achieve success here — in Ligue 1 their eventual triumph already looks inevitable. The Parisians last season won not only all domestic trophies but also finally claimed the Champions League title. Their only slip in 2025 came precisely against Chelsea — a heavy defeat in the Club World Cup final. Recently PSG have continued to collect trophies, although their performances have not always been completely convincing. In several competitions they have had to fight until the very end to secure victories, often deciding matches in dramatic fashion. After that, however, new titles followed — from the UEFA Super Cup to the Intercontinental Cup and, already in January, the French Super Cup, with each of those finals going to a penalty shootout. Meanwhile in Ligue 1, Lens persistently challenged for the top spot, and in the domestic cup the giant even lost to Paris FC. In the Champions League as well, after a confident start with three victories, the defending champion began to lose regularly. As a result, in February they had to struggle to overcome fellow French side Monaco. They lost 0–2 away but staged a comeback victory, and at home they settled for a draw.
At the International Champions Cup the English side leveled the overall balance — after that both clubs have three wins each. There is no point in playing defensively here anymore. The expectation is that the teams will once again produce a high-scoring game — over 3.0 total goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 scored goals.
