PSG is a big candidate for the title winner this season because this season PSG have a deadly trio up front, this is what makes me believe PSG can beat their opponents in the next round. Real Madrid have a winning mentality and their squad is also very strong for this season. Bayern munich and manchester city are among the strong candidates for the title this season seeing their performance in the domestic league and in the ucl is very impressive for this season i think they will try hard to get the ucl trophy. Maybe we shouldn't forget Napoli they are group winners with a pretty good performance so far.
I'm still not too sure about that, especially in the last 16 there is a possibility that they will face a Big Match considering that they have to be in second place in the group phase so it is very likely that they will do the same Big Match in this phase as last season.
In terms of players in the squad they are still very decent but of course this is not only a matter of players but the coach's scheme is also taken into account and you could say Galtier is a debutant for the Champions League so this could be something that is indeed the same as last season.
indeed Galtier has no experience in the Champions League but we have to look at the PSG squad this season where the PSG squad is inhabited by players who are full of experience in the Champions League. But before that we have to wait for the draw for the round of 16 which will be held tomorrow. As you said the big match is something that might happen to PSG and I hope they can be met with real madrid or with bayern munich because if this happens then we can see the strength of psg this season in the champions league. On the one hand, PSG is a team that is very ambitious to reach the champions league title and Galtier can make it happen if he knows how to beat a team that is stronger than them.
