Paris Saint-Germain has a job to finish. Last Wednesday, the men of Luis Enrique perfectly negotiated their quarter -first leg of the Champions League. Opposed to Aston Villa in front of their audience of the Parc des Princes, the Parisians won 3-1, thanks to superb achievements by Désiré Doué, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Nuno Mendes.

While their Ligue 1 meeting of this weekend against FC Nantes was postponed, the French champions will find the Villans on Tuesday evening (9 p.m.). A return round that will not be broadcast on the premium channel of Canal+, unlike the first leg.

This Aston Villa-PSG will be broadcast on Canal+ Foot. To look at the game, it will therefore be necessary not only to be subscribed to Canal+, but also to the Canal+ Sport or Canal+ the total. On the premium channel, the film “Neither chains nor masters” will be on the screen.

Canal+ signed an audience record during the first leg

A surprising choice from the Vincent Bolloré property group. Especially since he signed his best audience of the season during the quarter-final first. According to the mediametry figures, they were indeed 2.73 million viewers to follow the meeting between PSG and Aston Villa. This represents no less than 15% hearing shares. At the end of the first period, a peak was even observed at more than 3 million viewers.

Note that the other quarter -final on Tuesday evening between Borussia Dortmund and FC Barcelona will be broadcast on Canal+ Sport. During the first act, the Catalans largely won against the Germans (4-0).
