In the round of 16, PSG left Barcelona with a good advantage (4-1) before suffering in the return match (1-1).
This time, after the success acquired in Munich (3-2), Mauricio Pochettino hopes that everything will be different thanks to another "collective attitude".
The names of the incumbents do not matter, of which Marquinhos or Verratti will probably not be part.
In the first leg, PSG suffered on the sides.
Is it possible to defend both in the axis and the sides?
MAURICIO POCHETTINO.
This is one of the qualities of Bayern Munich.
We suffered, but we won.
This is what we must repeat tomorrow
(Editor's note: Tuesday)
while improving things.
As Presnel said
(Editor's note: Kimpembe)
, Bayern is one of the best teams in Europe.
I don't think Bayern will change their style of play. Neither will we.
I believe that both teams will keep their guiding ideas.
Benjamin Pavard said it was 50-50 before the first leg.
Do you think that's still the case before this second leg?
Yes.
For me, it remains a confrontation in which both teams can qualify.
We respect Bayern a lot.
It's the best team in the world, a team of great champions.
You have to have a lot of respect, while wanting to win on the pitch.
Can you count on Marquinhos?
We'll see how he feels tomorrow.
He could be back in the group.
To begin with, no.
But to be on the bench, we'll see tomorrow.

How do you explain the differences between performance outside and at home?
I agree.
This is a difficult question.
There is a difference in performance between away and home games.
We will analyze that at the end of the season.
We hope that, starting tomorrow, we can reverse this situation.

We haven't decided on the team yet.
But for Marco, it will be difficult to start.
For Alessandro, we'll see tomorrow.
How to better manage this return match than the one against Barça?
It is not a question of names.
In the first half against Barça, we had a lot of difficulty keeping the ball.
Marco and Paredes were in the field.
You remember ?
It is a question of collective attitude on the ground.
It's important to be able to keep the ball to hurt the opponent.
This is the challenge facing us tomorrow.
We need attitude and skills.
Barça is a thing of the past.
Bayern is different.
They are the best team in the world.
They are going to put us in difficulty.
It will be a question of low time management.
We will have to show strength and solidarity.
