For the third year in a row, PSG finished in second place in their group during the group stage. By being included in hat 2 of the draw for the round of 16 of the Champions League, which takes place on Monday December 18 in Nyon (Switzerland), the Parisian club knew it was in danger. But he avoided the European big names to inherit Real Sociedad, a revelation of this group phase but which does not have the track record of its opponents present in group 1. The fact remains that the Spaniards finished in first place in group D , ahead of Inter, Benfica and Salzburg without conceding the slightest defeat.
Eliminated in the last two seasons by Real Madrid and Bayern respectively, Paris has not played in the quarter-finals of the C1 since April 2021, and hopes to return to this level for the eighth time in its history. The two big shocks of these round of 16 will pit Naples against FC Barcelona, and Inter Milan against Atlético de Madrid.
