Despite holding a three-goal lead following a thrilling 5-2 win in their opener, Paris St Germain coach Luis Enrique said that he and his side expect a tough second leg away to Chelsea in London on Tuesday (March 17).


Speaking on the eve (March 16) of their match, Enrique stressed that second legs were different, especially against teams that find themselves trailing by a number of goals.


A late flurry in the opening leg saw PSG run out 5-2 victors, but winger Ousmane Dembele warned that his side needed to maintain focus in order to advance to the quarter-finals.
