Paris Saint-Germain's yearly quest to emerge as champions of Europe kicks off with a home match against newcomers Girona in the revamped Champions League on Wednesday.
PSG have had an impressive start to the season, triumphing in all four of their Ligue 1 matches, netting 16 goals along the way.
Sitting at the top of the table with a perfect 12 points, the focus now shifts to the Champions League where they are expected to secure another high-scoring victory at home against Girona.
Team news
PSG are expected to be without their first-choice goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, who is dealing with a muscle strain, while midfielders Warren Zaire-Emery and Vitinha are unlikely to have recovered from their recent injuries in time for the match.
Girona have no new injury concerns ahead of the clash at the Parc des Princes, but manager Michel might make changes following their 4-1 home loss to Barcelona over the weekend.
Daley Blind, Bryan Gil, and Arnaut Danjuma are likely to retain their spots, with Cristhian Stuani, who scored as a substitute on Sunday, pushing for a starting position.
The stats
PSG have won all four of their Ligue 1 fixtures this season with a combined score of 16-3.
Luis Enrique's team has scored at least three goals in each of their four matches so far.
Girona has conceded eight goals in five LaLiga games this season.
This marks PSG's 15th consecutive Champions League appearance, with their best result being a final loss to Bayern Munich in 2020.
Girona is gearing up for their inaugural European campaign after finishing third in Spain last season.
Prediction
Although PSG may have seen the departure of star striker Kylian Mbappe during the summer, their impressive start to the new season suggests they haven't felt his absence.
Enrique's squad have convincingly defeated Le Havre 4-1 and Montpellier 6-0 in the league, followed by consecutive 3-1 wins over Lille and Brest.
This form could intimidate any opponent, and Girona, entering the Champions League for the first time after a fantastic third-place finish in Spain last season, might be on the receiving end of a heavy defeat.
Girona's recent 3-0 and 4-1 losses to Atletico Madrid and Barcelona indicate a challenging season ahead for them.
Going against another European heavyweight in their debut, Girona may struggle to keep up in Paris.
