DIRECT. PSG-Barcelona: the Parisians challenge Lamine Yamal and the Catalan armada... Follow the Champions League match with us

Gala evening at the Parc des Princes. Less than a week after pulling out all the stops on the pitch at Manchester City (4-2), PSG welcomes, Tuesday October 20, another European giant: FC Barcelona. Authors of a faultless record with 11 victories in all competitions, the Catalans have impressed since the start of the season, in particular thanks to their fiery attack led by Lamine Yamal.

• A five-star cast. The red carpet at the entrance to the Parc des Princes has rarely been so appropriate. A shower of football stars is expected on the pitch. The last two Ballon d'Or winners, Rodri (2024) and Ousmane Dembélé (2025), will cross swords, alongside the one who could be next, Lamine Yamal. One week before the 2026 Ballon d'Or is awarded, this PSG-Barça almost looks like a dress rehearsal.

• A tight historical record. Having become rivals on a European scale, PSG and FC Barcelona have faced each other 16 times in their history. Apart from the 1997 Cup of Cup final, won by the Catalans, all these confrontations took place in the Champions League. With 6 victories each, 4 draws, and 29 goals scored on each side, PSG and Barça are neck and neck.
