One of the five teams to go unbeaten in the group stages of the Champions League, Barcelona will travel to the Groupama Stadium as they face Olympique Lyonnais in the first leg of the round of 16 fixture.
The French club is no walkover, with Les Gones gathering 4 points from a possible 6 against the tournament favourites Manchester City. Les Gones also remain the only team to beat PSG in the French league this season with the victory coming just 2 weeks ago at the Groupama. The French club will be looking to add the Blaugrana to their impressive list of big scalps at home this season.
The Blaugrana have been the biggest underachievers in the Champions League the last couple of seasons with the Catalan giants failing to go through to the semi-finals since winning it in the 2014-15 season. Barcelona will be looking to break their poor run and edge closer to their coveted title.
