Luis Enrique will be under huge pressure to win when he takes his Paris Saint-Germain side to Red Bull Salzburg in the Champions League on Tuesday.

Both clubs are in danger of missing out on the knockout stages, being among the biggest underperformers in the league phase so far.

Head-to-head:

• Both teams have never faced each other in the Champions League before
• The two clubs met in the Europa League in 2011, with each team picking 3 points each at home.

Form:

• Salzburg in the Champions League: L-L-L-W-L
• Salzburg in all competitions: L-L-D-W-D
• PSG in the Champions League: W-L-D-L-L
• PSG in all competitions: W-W-L-D-D

Team News:

• In the RB Salzburg squad Fernando, Maurits Kjaergaard, Leandro Morgalla, Janis Blaswich, Karim Konate, Aleksa Terzic, Edmund Baidoo, Kamil Piatkowski, and Hendry Blank are all out dealing with injuries.
• Meanwhile, in the Paris team, only Senny Mayulu is out of action nursing an injury.

Player(s) to watch:

• Oscar Gloukh is in scintillating form for RB Salzburg at the moment. He is their current top scorer. He also happens to be the youngest Israeli goalscorer in the Champions League at just 19 years.
• Bradley Barcola’s form in Ligue 1 has not carried on with him in the Champions League, as he is still hunting for his opening goal in this elite competition this season. He is the second-highest goalscorer in Ligue 1. His speed, acceleration, and vision truly set him apart from the rest.
