The Spanish football heavyweights are enjoying a 12-match unbeaten run at home across all competitions - this includes their two-match unbeaten run in the Champions League as the hosts.
Madrid secured a 2-1 win over Ukrainian champions Shakhtar Donetsk, before brushing aside Italian giants Inter Milan 2-0 in their last two home games in this international tournament.
"We have to be better in the second leg, when we have the game in our stadium," Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti said after their defeat to PSG.
"We don’t have to worry about away goals, which could help us. It’s obvious that PSG have a small advantage, but I hope it’s not enough."
