The European champions' first game back from the international break is a home clash against Toulouse. The match will take place on Friday to give Les Parisiens the best possible preparation for the huge match against Liverpool next Wednesday. This quarter-final tie is massive as Luis Enrique will feel his side has a great chance of winning the Champions League if they knock the Reds out of the tournament.

The former Spain coach has a significant incentive to rotate for the game against Toulouse, as several players are also returning from international duty with their respective countries. The Spaniard won't want to risk an injury to a key player ahead of the clash, as that could be detrimental to them progressing to the semi-finals.

They should have enough firepower to overcome a Toulouse side that is currently ninth in the table. They had won two of their last five league games, which is not bad considering that they have had to play against Marseille and Rennes, who are fighting for European football (Champions League and Europa League, respectively). PSG's form in the league has surprisingly not been that good. In their last five games, they have lost at home to Monaco (1-3) and away to Rennes (3-1). Their last game before the break was a 0-4 win against Nice at the Allianz Riviera.
