Ex-Man City defender Sagna declares PSG favourites

Former Manchester City defender Bacary Sagna believes PSG are favourites going into their Champions League semifinal.

The first-leg will be held this week.

Sagna told RMC: “This PSG has more certainties. This PSG scares me more than that of 2016, it defends better. This is my favourite. It has values this year which will push him far.

"The City of the Champions League is not that of the Premier League. There are uncertainties about this match especially if (Kevin) De Bruyne is missing. It might be a pretty tough game.

"The favourite for this year, for me, is Paris. They beat Bayern even while suffering. Mbappé and Neymar defended. This will push them a long way."
