Barcelona won the first leg 3-2 thanks to a timely winner from ex-Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen.

And PSG will be desperate to end their European hoodoo when Luis Enrique steps back out at his old club tonight.

Whoever reaches the semis will fancy their chances of progressing past either Atletico Madrid or Borussia Dortmund to June’s final.

And tensions were high as both teams arrived in the Catalan capital ahead of kick-off.

According to reports in Spain, some Barcelona fans hurled objects at PSG’s team bus as it arrived at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys, which is being used while the Nou Camp undergoes a major renovation.

Flares and smoke greeted the bus as it pulled up several hours before the start of the game.

And unidentified objects were chucked by some parts of the crowd as the coach came to a standstill.

However, the Barcelona fans were left eating humble pie.

As the doors opened, it became clear it was not PSG on board the bus.

Instead, the vehicle was carrying their own players like Robert Lewandowski and Frenkie de Jong.

And it made for an awkward entrance as the home side gathered themselves for the test ahead.

Speaking ahead of kick-off, Barcelona boss Xavi Hernandez declared he wants to pass his way to victory.

He explained: “We’re not a team that will sit on our lead, we want to take the ball off PSG and win the game.

“It’s the Champions League, it’s Paris, and a game in which no one will be holding back.”

But PSG boss Enrique, who won the Champions League as part of 2015’s Treble with Barca, insisted his side can overturn a first-leg European defeat for the first time in their history.

He said: “PSG have never come back to win after losing a first leg, but [Tuesday] is the day.

“We have a very united group of players, in which there are no egos.”
