Messi gets the game underway for PSG!
Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Champions League Group H meeting between Paris Saint-Germain and Maccabi Haifa at the Parc des Princes!
PSG can secure their place in the knockout rounds today with a win, or with a draw if Juventus fail to beat Benfica. Christophe Galtier's side are still unbeaten in all competitions this season (W13 D4), and they come into this on the back of two wins after three consecutive draws before that. After stunning Juventus with a 2-0 victory last time out in the Champions League, Haifa still have a chance of making the last 16 with another shock win here today. If they don't, they won't be able to get out of the group, but third place would still be up for grabs going into the final game.
PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN STARTING XI (4-3-3): Gianluigi Donnarumma; Achraf Hakimi, Sergio Ramos, Marquinhos, Juan Bernat; Vitinha, Fabian Ruiz, Renato Sanches; Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar.
PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN SUBS: El Chadaille Bitshiabu, Pablo Sarabia, Warren Zaire-Emery, Sergio Rico, Presnel Kimpembe, Nordi Mukiele, Carlos Soler, Nuno Mendes, Hugo Ekitike, Keylor Navas.
MACCABI HAIFA STARTING XI (4-3-3): Josh Cohen; Abdoulaye Seck, Dylan Batubinsika, Sean Goldberg, Pierre Cornud; Ali Muhammad, Neta Lavi, Mohammad Abu Fani; Omer Atzili, Frantzdy Pierrot, Tjaronn Chery.
MACCABI HAIFA SUBS: Raz Meir, Sun Menachem, Maor Levi, Dean David, Rami Gershon, Roei Fuchs, Ofri Arad, Nikita Rukavytsya, Roei Mashpati, Mavis Tchibota, Inon Eliyahu.
The teams are out on the pitch now, with kick-off just moments away!
Galtier will be pleased with his side's performance so far. The hosts are in control and on their way to the knockout stages as things stand, with Juventus currently losing to Benfica in the other group game. Haifa haven't sat back though, and could still cause PSG a few problems in the second half.
That's all for today, goodbye!
PSG's place in the knockout round is confirmed, but the fight for the top spot goes into the final matchday as Benfica also won their group game today. PSG face Juventus next week. Haifa can't reach the round of 16 after that defeat, but as Juve also lost, they could still gain a Europa League place if they get a result against Benfica next Wednesday.
