    Paris St-Germain v Chelsea (19:45 GMT

    Baba Rahman gets a starting chance for Chelsea and will be looking to show Guus Hiddink what he can do.

    The Ghana international, 21, cost a fee reportedly in excess of £21m when he joined Chelsea from German side Augsburg last summer.

    The left-back has since started only nine games but three of those have been in the Champions League.

    This will be a big test, though, for a player whose only start in the last couple of months was an FA Cup tie against MK Dons.

    We compared the win rate of teams in matches immediately following a European game with their win rate across that season as a whole.

    Of the six English teams who have competed in Europe most often over the past six seasons, three have performed better in the Premier League after European matches, two have seen their results suffer on their return to domestic action and one, Tottenham, have exactly the same win rate.

    Chris Waddle
    Former England winger at the Parc des Princes for 5 live Sport

    "PSG have assembled a strong squad and they are winning week in, week out in France, but those games are a bit false. The French league is the fifth division in Europe.

    "The Champions League is the one competition they will be judged on, the club are desperate to win it. They can win the French League every year but if they don't win the Champions League then it will be classed as a failure."

    French champions Paris St-Germain knocked Chelsea out in the last-16 last season - the same stage we are at now - on away goals.

    While Chelsea moved into the 2014 semi-finals with an away-goals win.

    You get the feeling Paris St-Germain are          

    PSG are 24 points clear at the top of Ligue 1 as they cruise towards a fourth straight title. Now they have their eyes on conquering Europe.

    In honour of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and his aftershave, we are asking what other players or managers could have a product named after them.

    Angry Asaf: Wenger could probably open his own large coats lines...

    Joseph Lovett: Suarez should make a toothpaste brand. I don't think I need to explain why...

    Here's a little fact about PSG striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic... he has his own perfume brand.

    So, we want to know what other players or managers could have products named after them and why.

    I'll start you off. Diego Costa could have boxing gloves named after him due to his combative style.

    Or, how about Sir Alex Ferguson starting his own hairdryer brand? Due to his hairdryer treatment when angry.

    Hello and welcome to the return of the Champions League - cue the music.

    Who would have thought Premier League champions Chelsea would be entering the knock-out stages in Europe while 12th in the Premier League.

    A top four finish is surely beyond them but - now on a 10-match unbeaten league run - Guus Hiddink's men are back in form.

    Europe - you have been warned.

    But, after 13 consecutive seasons in Europe's elite competition, their best chance of keeping that run going is by winning it this season.
