PSG to face Bayern Munich in Champions League quarterfinal match

Bayern Munich Travel to Paris for Champions League Semifinal First Leg

Paris Saint-Germain will host Bayern Munich in the first leg of their Champions League semifinal on Tuesday, April 28 at 9pm GMT. The match is being held at Parc des Princes in Paris.

The teams are competing in a highly anticipated matchup, with the winner likely to be favored for the final in Budapest in May. Bayern Munich has been in strong form, having already secured the Bundesliga title and reaching the German Cup final. They have also won their last Champions League quarterfinal match against Real Madrid.

Paris Saint-Germain, the defending champions, are also in good form and are six points clear at the top of Ligue 1. The team has a poor recent record against Bayern, having lost their last four Champions League games against them. However, they did beat Bayern 2-0 in the quarterfinals of the Club World Cup last July.

Both teams have scored 38 goals in the Champions League this season, more than any other club. Paris Saint-Germain recently won a match against Angers, beating them 3-0 to open up a six-point advantage over Lens at the top of the table.

Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane has been in form, scoring 53 goals in 45 games in all competitions for the team. However, he has started just one of Bayern’s seven league games since February due to injury concerns.

The match is expected to be a closely contested and high-scoring game, with both teams having strong attacking lineups. The outcome will likely depend on individual performances and quality.
