Paris Saint-Germain have scored in 19 of their last 21 Champions League matches
Monaco have netted in five successive away games in the Champions League
Recommended bet: PSG to win and both teams to score
Paris Saint-Germain will expect to seal their place in the last 16 of the Champions League when they take on Ligue 1 rivals Monaco in the second leg of their knockout phase play-off tie at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday.
Luis Enrique's defending champions hold a 3-2 advantage from last week's first leg, but that does not tell the whole story, as they had to battle back from 2-0 down and benefited from Monaco playing much of the second half with 10 men.
Monaco's efforts at the Stade Louis II will give them hope of turning the tie around, but they have only won once across their last 10 visits to the Parc des Princes.

Team news
PSG were 2-0 down inside the opening 18 minutes of last week's first leg and then lost Ousmane Dembele to a calf injury that leaves him doubtful for this match.
Desire Doue replaced his fellow France international in the Principality and went on to score a brace, meaning he should start on Wednesday. Like Dembele, Senny Mayulu (calf) and Fabian Ruiz (knee) are considered doubts.
Monaco's list of absentees is lengthy, with Paul Pogba, Mohammed Salisu, Takumi Minamino and Lukas Hradecky all set to miss out with knee problems, while hamstring injuries leave Eric Dier and Christian Mawissa as major doubts.
Kassoum Ouattara (calf) and Maghnes Akliouche (hip) are also facing an uphill battle to prove their fitness while Aleksandr Golovin is suspended after his first-leg red card.

The stats
PSG have won six and lost only one of their last 10 home meetings with Monaco, whose sole success at the Parc des Princes during that time was a 2-0 victory in February 2021.
The Parisians are the leading scorers in this season's Champions League heading into the midweek action, netting 24 goals across their nine games.
Both teams have scored in seven of PSG's last eight Champions League matches.
Five of Monaco's last six games across all competitions have featured a minimum of four goals.
Sebastien Pocognoli's side have scored in all four of their Champions League away games this season, but that sequence includes suffering heavy defeats at Club Brugge (4-1) and Real Madrid (6-1).
Monaco may have surrendered a two-goal lead to lose last week's first leg 3-2, but they themselves came from two goals down to beat PSG's Ligue 1 title rivals Lens 3-2 at the weekend.

Prediction
PSG were in something of a sticky situation early in the first leg, but they showcased their attacking quality — namely through Doue — to turn things around and they should be able to outgun Monaco once again.
Scoring goals has certainly not been an issue for PSG — they are the leading scorers in both Ligue 1 and the Champions League this season — but keeping teams out at the other end has not been as straightforward.
Enrique's side have conceded in seven of their last eight European games, including three on the bounce on home soil, and they will be facing a Monaco side that have scored eight goals across their last three fixtures.
Both teams have scored in four of Monaco's last five games and that trend can continue on Wednesday, but ultimately that is unlikely to be enough for Les Rouge et Blanc both on the night and in the tie.
