These two teams are currently tied for top spot in Group A with seven points from their three games so far. So whoever wins today should - if the following results in the group go as expected - be able to take top spot and avoid a clash with another group winner in the next round.

With teams such as Juventus, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich currently topping other groups, coming out in first place can be considered important and is worth fighting for.

In team news ahead of the big game, midfielder James Rodriguez has been rumored to be returning to action. He has suffered with a bad thigh problem this season so far, and has only managed to play in two games.

However, Real manager Rafael Benitez has said that just because Rodriguez is in the match day squad does not mean that he will start. He is lacking match fitness and may still not be back to his best.

Benitez has said, "Rodriguez is on the list. That does not mean he starts. He lacks match fitness."

However, Real will be facing a tough test, as this PSG side remains undefeated in 16 games this season, and they will be confident at causing an upset at the Bernabeu tonight. But they will know that Real themselves are also unbeaten in all competitions to date this season, so this really is a clash between two teams in excellent form.

About other players, Benitez has said, "Benzema, Bale and Arbeloa, who are not in the squad, lack the match confidence to have a role in such a high intensity game as this. The first thing we do is talk to the players and then the physios and doctors in order to get a precise view of the situation. If he says the player is ready to play then there is no problem."

In the first encounter between these teams in this year's Champions League, the game ended in a 0-0 draw in Paris, meaning if one of the sides can come out on top today the group will be theirs for the taking.
