Paris SG, without their Neymar-Mbappé-Cavani attack trio but with rookies Keylor Navas in goal and probably Mauro Icardi ahead, receive Real Madrid for a five-star display on the first day of the Champions League , Wednesday.

The first place in Group A is perhaps played in this opening match at Parc des Princes. Brugge and Galatasaray compete against each other earlier, with the goal of disturbing the game in this pool.

In group D, the Spaniards of Atletico find the Italians of Juventus, who had eliminated last year in the round of 16 thanks to a tripled Ronaldo in the second leg.
