Team news
PSG are without the suspended Illia Zabarnyi, who was sent off in the 7-2 win over Bayer Leverkusen on matchday three, while Desire Doue is sidelined by a thigh injury.
Ousmane Dembele and Fabian Ruiz were both on the bench for Saturday's win over Nice and the duo are pushing for places in the starting XI.
Bayern duo Jamal Musiala and Alphonso Davies are both long-term absentees, while this contest comes too soon for Hiroki Ito, who is edging closer to a return from a metatarsal fracture.
Harry Kane, Michael Olise and Luis Diaz all came off the bench in the weekend victory over Leverkusen and the trio are expected to be recalled.
The stats
PSG have lost just one of their 15 matches in all competitions and are unbeaten at home this season, winning five and drawing one.
Les Parisiens have scored 13 goals in their three League Phase victories in the Champions League, beating Atalanta 4-0, Barcelona 2-1 and Leverkusen 7-2.
Bayern have won all 15 fixtures this term, scoring 54 goals at an average of 3.6 per match.
The Bavarians have also amassed the maximum nine points on offer in Europe, recording victories over Chelsea (3-1), Pafos (5-1) and Club Brugge (4-0).
PSG beat Bayern 2-0 in this year's Club World Cup but the German giants have won the last four Champions League meetings, all to nil.

Prediction
It may seem strange to back against a team who remain perfect this season, but this is arguably Bayern's toughest test so far and they may struggle to overpower the reigning European champions at the Parc des Princes.
PSG have won five of their six home matches this term, the sole blemish a 3-3 draw against Strasbourg, and Luis Enrique's troops usually raise their levels when it comes to the crunch matches.
Les Parisiens ripped Leverkusen apart on matchday three, triumphing 7-2, while they also recorded a 2-1 victory at Barcelona and beat Atalanta 4-0 on home soil in this competition.
For all of Bayern's terrific work this season, they have conceded in four of their six away fixtures and this inability to keep the door closed regularly on the road could be their downfall in Paris.
