Chelsea make the tough trip to face Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 this week.

The Blues sealed their spot in the knock-outs by finishing sixth in the league phase of the competition, with five wins from eight games.

PSG had to settle for the play-offs after coming 11th, but were able to see off league rivals Monaco 5-4 on aggregate to set up a tie with Chelsea.

Liam Rosenior's side are in strong form ahead of their trip to the French capital, with four wins and just one defeat in their previous seven matches.

Chelsea will host PSG next week at Stamford Bridge, and so will hope to take a decent result into the second leg, with Football Insider highlighting all you need to know about the first leg this week.

How can viewers watch other Premier League teams in UCL action?

Former CEO of numerous Premier League sides, Keith Wyness, has exclusively revealed to Football Insider that Chelsea's financial situation will be of concern to their owners after their huge losses last season, and so they may well prioritise a deep run in the Champions League to increase their revenue.

They face the prospect of taking on Liverpool in the quarter-finals, should they both progress past this round, with viewers able to watch Arne Slot's side take on Galatasaray on TNT Sports 1 on Tuesday, 10 March at 5:45pm.
