  Man City have an advantage over PSG in the second leg with a backing a 2 away goals added by the Injury update to PSG star Kylian Mbappe The hope for Pep Guardiola's maiden Final to UEFA Champions league with Man City is positive, facing the PSG side at home is an added advantage for City but also what came in as a delight for them was that Mbappe is in doubts with an injury an is said to be missing out on the second leg which takes away PSG's threat on the offensive phase of their attacks, Man City were a goal down to Marquinhos in the first leg of the tie but goals by Kevin De Bryune and R.Mahrez gave City precious away goals to take at home and face the Parisians in the second leg. Though the Man City manager knows that they have the advantage of away goals but is wary of the fact PSG are a strong team and have made it this far in the competition beating the likes of Barcelona and Bayern Munchen so its not all done and dusted all PSG would need to score a few goals and wit

Coming into the game Barcelona will be looking vulnerable without their talisman and the presence and command of Pique in the defence will surely be missed, S.Roberto is another defender who walked off injured previous game against Atleti thus leaving Ronald Koeman short handed while picking up the squad for the game. Dynamo Kyiv who are currently 3rd in the Europa league spot will look to have advantage of the home support in the form of fans which will be a limited capacity thus creating an atmosphere for the game, last time the two teams met it was a narrow defeat for Kyiv as they fell to a defeat away at Camp Nou by 2-1 a victory at the night could spark up hope
