PSG carries a 3-2 edge into the second leg of the quarterfinals after winning the first leg in Munich.

One of last season's Champions League finalists is moving on; the other is headed out.

PSG and Bayern Munich play Tuesday in Paris for a place in the Champions League semifinals, with the hosts carrying a 3-2 aggregate edge into the second leg. Kylian Mbappé's first-leg double gave PSG the advantage in the rematch of the 2020 final, which Bayern won, 1-0. It'll take a greater result than that to overturn the deficit with PSG's three away goals looming large in the quarterfinal series.

Bayern will again have to play without star forward Robert Lewandowski, whose knee injury rules him out of the second leg. His replacement, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, scored in the first leg, as did Thomas Müller, to keep Bayern within striking distance.

Bayern will require a two-goal win or a one-goal win while scoring more than three goals to advance after 90 minutes, while a 3-2 reverse result would force extra time.

The winner will go on to play either Manchester City or Borussia Dortmund in the semifinals. Man City holds a 2-1 aggregate lead heading into Wednesday's second leg in Germany.
