Real Madrid play PSG in one of the biggest games of the season

#3 Gareth Bale (Real Madrid)

Can he make a difference against PSG?

Gareth Bale is in perfect shape ahead of the Wednesday night Champions League fixture. Since his injury return in January, the Welshman has scored 4 goals in 5 starts for Real Madrid. He started the weekend game against Real Sociedad on the bench and was lively in his 17-minute cameo.

Gareth Bale poses a big goal threat for Paris Saint-Germain in the round of 16 fixture. He is one of the best wingers in the world and his pace, strength, and acceleration hold the key to Real Madrid's attacking play. He is phenomenal in one-on-one situations and in set pieces. Thiago Silva and Marquinhos will find it hard to contain the flying Welshman.

PSG will play cautiously away from home at the Santiago Bernabeu and Bale's crossing from wide areas will be the key to unlocking PSG's defence. On his day, there is no stopping Gareth Bale.
