Champions League 13/4/2021
Champions League 13/4/2021. Two games in the Champions League tonight. At 20:00, on BT Sport 2, is Chelsea v Porto. Also at 20:00, on BT Sport 3, is Paris St-Germain v Bayern Munich.
Champions League 13/4/2021 – Chelsea v Porto
- Thomas Tuchel is hoping to recover Andreas Christensen and Tammy Abraham for the meeting with Porto.
- Thiago Silva is well rested after serving a ban against Crystal Palace at the weekend and he could come into the XI.
- N’Golo Kante has shaken off a hamstring problem and may feature and with an FA Cup meeting with Manchester City looming, Tuchel could rotate his side.
- Mehdi Taremi and Sergio Oliveira both return for FC Porto having missed the first leg due to a ban and the pair are expected to start at the Roman Sanchez Pizjuan.
- Luis Diaz and Marko Grujic are the two players who should drop out of the side in this instance.
- Diogo Costa is absent for the Portuguese side and is joined by Mouhamed Mbaye on the sidelines.
Champions League 13/4/2021 – PSG v Bayern Munich
- Marco Verratti and Alessandro Florenzi are both available for head coach Mauricio Pochettino after the pair returned negative COVID-19 tests, which swells the PSG ranks.
- However, Keylor Navas has emerged as a fresh doubt having come off at the break at the weekend, though Pochettino has played down fears of a prolonged spell on the sidelines and he should be fit to start.
- Mauro Icardi and Layvin Kurzawa will be assessed, but Marquinhos and Juan Bernat are ruled out.
- The former’s absence is a huge blow and could see Danilo Pereira drop into defence with either the returning Leandro Paredes or Ander Herrera set to start alongside Idrissa Gueye.
- Hansi Flick could be without up to 10 senior players for the trip to Paris, with Douglas Costa, Corentin Tolisso, Robert Lewandowski and Serge Gnabry confirmed absentees.
- Alphonso Davies is well rested after serving a domestic ban and should start at left-back given Lucas Hernandez is struggling with a rib injury.
- At the heart of the defence, Jerome Boateng and Nicklas Sule are doubts, with the former the more likely of the pair to feature.
- Javi Martinez could make a rare start in central midfield with Marc Roca and Leon Goretzka doubts, though Flick could drop Thomas Muller in alongside Joshua Kimmich and bring Jamal Musiala into the XI.
- Kingsley Coman came off at the break against Union Berlin, but should be fine to start out wide.
