From the defeat 0-3 in front of the Juventus, the Barcelona only has lost twice in 18 parties. These falls were hard, when treating of the final of the Supercopa in front of the Athletic Club and the gone of semifinals in the Glass of the King in front of the Seville. This last, with the peculiarity of Leo Messi a bit desdibujado in comparison to what has showed lately.
But if there is a season in which Messi has showed that it is human, is this precisely, in which it has seen a quite emotional side, character, leadership, moments of head fallen and also some controversy for happening a bit of revolutions. It keeps on being of the best, but the Barça needs to all.
This Tuesday in front of the PSG, Koeman will have a chessboard in which it will be able to give an effective hit in front of a team that has seen of frequent way the last years by Spain, with eliminatory in front of the Real Madrid and especially the Barcelona, with that traced back of 6-1 unforgettable. Although also the names of Neymar and Verratti have his history.
Precisely in relation to punctual names of players, are the most important keys to face this duel of eighth of final in front of the current runner-up of the Champions League, that will have important drops and his actuality is not the best in his deployment in the field.
Attack
Maybe the most vulnerable zone in these moments for the PSG. A fearsome offensive formed between Icardi, Mbappé, Gave María and Neymar guio to the team to the final of the glass the past year and for this eliminatory, will not have the two last at least for the gone, leaving big weight for the French youngster.
And here it roots the big problem. Mbappé Is a player of desborde lethal and attacks with a lot of vertigo, thanks to his speed and strength that in France already does him despuntar of simple way. But the sacrifice and unfold constant of "The Noodle" is fundamental in this, as well as the drag of marks that provides Neymar.
When being orphan of these helps, Kylian will see forced to support in Icardi, that with each party that happens combines less with his mates and finish being a more selfish forward of the normal. The French already went through something similar in front of the Real Madrid of Cristiano Ronaldo and little could do in front of the white defence.
Midfield
Verratti Arrives very just to the meeting, Walls has an important load of minutes and Draxler is the steering wheel that will have the responsibility to link between defence and attack. The panorama in the medullary French no luce for nothing positive and in comparison to the Barça, there is an enormous difference, with a Pedri that seems that it carries 10 years breaking lines and creating spaces beside Messi. Ander Herrera, another option for the muscle of the PSG, is not in his best moment.
Defence
Here there is another lunar considerable, since from the goal there are doubts for Pochettino. Keylor Navas Is not to the one hundred by one hundred physically and until the last moment can be a low surprise. Bernat is still in the infirmary and the right side occupies it Kehrer more by obligation that by decision. Only the pair Marquinhos-Kimpembe seems to give hopes, although they carry a lot of parties in his legs.
The big problem will be the left side with Kurzawa, that gives the same if it confronts to Dembelé, Trincao or Griezmann, because the three arrive with some regularity and puntería to this duel. The side of the PSG will not have an easy night and Pochettino will have to adjust very well the coverages with Pedri and Of Jong if it wants to avoid a bloodletting in this sector.
