Premier League leaders Chelsea play Paris St Germain in the Champions League last-16 second leg at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday with the tie level at 1-1.

Here we look at five talking points ahead of the crunch European tie.

1. Focus on the football

The first leg on February 17 was overshadowed by an incident of racism on the Paris Metro, when a black commuter was blocked from boarding a train by Chelsea fans prior to the match. Five Chelsea fans were suspended as a result of the incident, which was caught on video, and anyone found guilty of the abuse faces a life ban. Souleymane S, the French-Mauritian victim, was invited to Stamford Bridge for the return, but his lawyer said it was "too early" for him to attend, declining the invitation.
