Good evening and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE Champions League matchcast as Valencia host Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League last-16. Team news will follow very shortly!

There's been a goal already in the other CL match at Celtic Park...

Lavezzi takes the ball forward but takes too long to pick out a team-mate and is dispossessed by makeshift left-back Guardado, who is then fouled by the Argentine.

Lucas is back on the pitch and looks fine to continue.

Valencia sportingly give possession back and play resumes.

With just over a minute on the clock, PSG play the ball out having withstood some early pressure as Lucas is down hurt.

Valencia kick off the first half, here we go!

The teams are on the pitch and we're almost ready to kick off. @ironcub14 is the first reader to get involved with a prediction via Twitter: "Amunt Valencia~ looking forward to a 2-0 home win, we'll keep Ibra n Lavezzi quiet." - Want to get published too?

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the top assist provider in the Champions League this season (5).

Roberto Soldado has scored 14 goals in his last 14 Champions League starts.

PSG have conceded at least two goals in six of their last seven competitive games against Spanish sides but they have lost only two of their last six competitive away games in Spain, winning three (against Real Madrid, Deportivo La Coruna and Sevilla) and drawing one.

Valencia are unbeaten in their last nine games at the Mestalla in the Champions League (six wins, three draws), scoring 28 goals during that run.

PSG hadn’t reached the knockout stages of the Champions League since 1994/95, but they've now won their last four Champions League games, the best run currently.

Valencia have won all six of their encounters with French clubs in the Champions League (since 1992/93). Nantes are the only French club to beat Valencia in European competition over 90 minutes. It was back in April 1980 in the Cup Winners’ Cup semi-finals. Since then, Valencia have won 13 and drawn four of their competitive encounters with French clubs.

This is the first ever competitive meeting between Valencia and PSG, believe it or not.

Carlo Ancelotti (PSG): "We have a lot of players with speed. But our goal is to play football, not just to play on the counter attack. I think this will be a good test for us to evaluate the capacity we have to play our football and not just on the counter but with possession of the ball."

Ernesto Valderde (Valencia): "What we want is to get through this tie, even though they are the favourites, and go into the quarter-finals. We won't settle for just giving a good show of ourselves. We aren't here to look good in defeat. We compete to win. They are a club who are pushing to become one of the biggest in Europe, but that doesn't mean anything. Over 180 minutes we will see what happens. I don't care that they are favourites. The key is in the game."
