BAR vs PSG Dream 11 Prediction: The UEFA Champions League gets back in action later tonight as two European heavyweights FC Barcelona and Paris Saint Germain get set to lock horns. PSG under new manager Mauricio Pocchetino will be aiming to go the distance this time around, especially after falling short in the finals to Bayern Munich last season. Meanwhile, things have been topsy turvy for FC Barcelona in recent times, especially off the pitch, but the Catalans led by Lionel Messi are eager to reclaim their long lost glory in Europe. FC Barcelona are on the back of seven wins in the league and will take plenty of confidence from their recent run. PSG, on the other hand are working a bit hard to ensure their authority in Ligue 1 as they’re a point short of Lille who reside at the top. Nevertheless, the French Club does have ample quality in their locker to go big this time as well. We can expect nothing short of an exhilarating affair, and here is the BAR vs PSG Dream 11 Prediction for the upcoming contest.
