Barcelona versus Paris St Germain tonight - Wednesday October 1 will be an occasion to savour.

The La Liga champions host a PSG side who last season won a glorious treble, including the French championship and the club's first-ever European Cup.

The Paris-based giants, managed by legendary ex-Barca player Luis Enrique, thrashed Inter Milan 5-0 in last term's Champions League final in Munich.

Ominously, they got the defence of their European crown off to a flying start last week after thrashing Serie A outfit Atalanta 4-0 at home.

Barcelona, meanwhile, showed their class with an impressive 2-1 victory at Newcastle United, with England striker Marcus Rashford grabbing a delightful brace of goals.

To add to the spice, Barcelona feel Lamine Yamal should have been awarded the Ballon d'Or trophy ahead of PSG's, and former Barca player, Ousmane Dembele, who was crowned the world's best male player instead but misses this game through injury in a major blow to the French side.

Where is Barcelona vs PSG being played?

Barcelona vs PSG will take place at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys in Barcelona as the Spanish champions' long wait for a Camp Nou return continues.

Barcelona have spent the past two seasons trekking up the hill of Montjuïc to watch their side in the hollow concrete bowl of the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, which has a capacity of 55,926.

Hansi Flick’s side had hoped to be back at their spiritual home for such a huge encounter - but ongoing delays means it is still not ready for them to return.

Barcelona vs PSG - the key men 

Raphinha - Barcelona

The Brazil forward had the most goal involvements in last season’s Champions League, finishing the competition with 13 goals and eight assists as Barcelona reached the semi-finals.

It surpassed Lionel Messi’s record from the 2011-12 season, while Raphinha also scored 18 goals as Barcelona won the LaLiga title.

Bradley Barcola - Paris Saint-Germain

The 23-year-old France forward has made a fine start to the season, scoring four goals in nine appearances for club and country.

Underrated by some, Barcola will be keen to make his presence felt against the Spanish champions.

Barcelona vs PSG prediction

This is arguably the match of the round in Matchday Two and is difficult to call, but PSG have the class to go to Barcelona and win.

Indeed, it could take a special team to stop Luis Enrique's men from retaining their crown this season.
