Before challenging Atlético Madrid, PSG was able to see that the first results of the fourth day of the Champions League were not at all to their advantage: Paris is on the edge of the top 24, synonymous with play-offs.
The fourth day of the Champions League is being played this midweek and PSG will face Atlético Madrid this Wednesday evening (9 p.m.) as a team that absolutely must win. And even more so after the results of the matches on Tuesday evening since Paris, only 19th at the kick-off of this fourth day, has now even fallen to 23rd place following the day's matches, or just in the top 24 which sends in dams.
