Game Preview

RB Leipzig have been one of the biggest surprises in the UEFA Champions League this season, dispatching Tottenham Hotspur and Atletico Madrid in the knockouts stages en route to their first-ever semifinal berth. Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, have responded to expectations and made it to the team's first semifinal since the 1994-95 season. Led by Neymar and Kylian Mbappe, the reigning Ligue 1 champions dispatched Borussia Dortmund in the round of 16 and Atalanta in the quarterfinals after two late goals. The French side starts this game as the massive odds-on favorite, but Leipzig have already proven they have enough weapons to upset any team.
