Sports Mole rounds up all of Paris Saint-Germain's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Champions League semi-final first leg with Man City.

Paris Saint-Germain resume their quest for Champions League success on Wednesday night when they welcome Manchester City to the Parc des Princes for the first leg of their semi-final.

Mauricio Pochettino's side are aiming to reach the final for the second year running, and they gained revenge over reigning champions Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals by eliminating them on away goals after a 3-3 aggregate draw.

Les Parisiens also head into this game on the back of a 3-1 win over Metz in Ligue 1, but that victory was not enough to see them remain at the summit after Lille beat Lyon in dramatic circumstances.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of PSG's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the first leg.
