Paris Saint-Germain trained at their Camp des Loges (Ooredoo Training Centre) facility near Paris on Tuesday, on the eve of the second leg of their Champions League last 16 tie against Borussia Dortmund.

French police annouced on Monday that due to the threat posed by the COVID-19 virus, the match will be played 'behind closed doors' without spectators.

PSG trail 2-1 from the first leg in Germany on 18th February.

Neymar's 75th minute away goal might yet prove crucial for Thomas Tuchel's side, but they will not have the usual advantage of a vocal home crowd behind them on this occasion.

PSG are also likely to have some defending to do.

Dortmund's prolific striker Erling Haland scored borth goals in the first leg and the visitors come into the game on a five-match winning run.
