If the past two seasons are anything to go by, prepare for some drama and late goals at Stamford Bridge when Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain meet in the Champions League last 16 on Wednesday. In the quarterfinals in 2014, Chelsea only advanced because of Demba Ba's 87th-minute goal that sealed a 2-0 win in the second leg while Thiago Silva's header late in extra time put 10-man PSG through from the round of 16 last year. It promises to be just as close this time too after PSG's 2-1 win in the first leg in Paris.
