PSG aims to overcome past disappointments in the Champions League knockout stages. Having already secured the Ligue 1 title, their primary focus is now on this competition. In the Round of 16, PSG defeated top seed Liverpool, equalizing in the second leg and winning on penalties. Ousmane Dembele, enjoying a career-best season with PSG, is priced at +140 as an anytime goalscorer and leads the team with seven Champions League goals. Doue and Kvaratskhelia, both first-leg scorers, are each at +220 to score again on Tuesday. Bradley Barcola, the team`s second top scorer, is +180 to score, likely as a substitute. PSG enters this match well-rested after a full week off and welcomes back Marquinhos from suspension.
Aston Villa manager Unai Emery hopes to add to PSG`s Champions League struggles. Despite a 3-1 aggregate deficit, Villa returns home, where they have only lost once in domestic play this season. Following the loss in Paris, they responded with a 3-0 victory over Southampton, fueled by Ollie Watkins` impactful performance off the bench. Watkins is expected to start Tuesday and is priced at +170 to score. Marcus Rashford is at +210 to find the net. Villa will miss Donyell Malen, who is ineligible for the Champions League squad due to transfer regulations. Leon Bailey is also doubtful due to injury.
