Barcelona's hopes of beating Paris Saint-Germain and leapfrogging the French champion to finish atop its Champions League group rests on troubling the visitor's defense more than in the 3-2 loss in Paris, according to coach Luis Enrique.
PSG - which came from behind to beat Nantes 2-1 on Saturday and remains the only unbeaten team in the major European leagues - tops the table by a point and a draw will suffice to see it win its Champions League group for the third straight season.
Barcelona, which prevailed in a tightly-fought quarterfinal between the teams in the 2012-13 campaign, progressing on away goals, enters the game on the back of a crushing 5-1 derby win over Espanyol, in which Lionel Messi scored a hat-trick.
