On February 14th, PSG will host Real Sociedad at Parc des Princes in the UEFA Champions League round of 16. A matchup that, in theory, appears manageable for Luis Enrique's men. However, on the other side, the Basque club is getting back players recovering from their respective injuries and could be in good shape for the Champions League return.

According to the latest information from El Diario Vasco, Ander Barrenetxea, who suffered an ankle injury on January 18th, could return to the squad for the 23rd matchday of La Liga against Girona this Saturday. The Real Sociedad winger is finalizing his recovery process and has a good chance of being called up by Imanol Alguacil.

For the match on February 14th, Real Sociedad could benefit from a significant return of one of their regular starters.
