Mauricio Pochettino, the PSG manager, lauded City manager Pep Guardiola ahead of their Champions League semi-final tie.
“I like playing against Pep because for me he is the best in the world," Pochettino said.
"And playing against him makes you improve as a coach. City is a very good team and is tailor-made by Pep. I think he is showing what he has already shown at Barcelona and Bayern.”
The last time PSG hosted City in a competitive match was on 6 April 2016.
The two teams played to a 2-2 draw in the Champions League quarter-final first-leg match at the Parc des Princes.
