Barcelona vs Paris Saint-Germain Live Stream: Watch UEFA Champions League Soccer Online

Paris Saint-Germain have the tall task to eliminate Barcelona as they are paired in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals. The first leg will be played on April 15, 2015 at 2:45 p.m. ET at Parc des Princes in Paris.

Already familiar to each other, Barcelona and PSG were in Group F in the group stages of the competition.

Barcelona won that group by winning five of six matches, while PSG came in second but were only two points behind the Catalans. In fact, Barcelona's only loss in the group stages was against PSG when they met in Paris in only their second games in the competition.

David Luiz scored the match's opener for the hosts but it was erased in only a minute after Lionel Messi leveled things. Marco Verratti restored the lead in the 26th and was doubled by Blaise Matuidi in the second half. Neymar tried to start a comeback for the La Liga squad by scoring two minutes after Matuidi's goal but they ran out of time and PSG secured the three points.

When the two teams qualified for the knockout stages, PSG were handed the task to beat Chelsea in the round-of-16.

In what was one of the best matches in the knockout stage, the two teams drew 1-1 at the end of the first leg with Edinson Cavani cancelling Brian Ivanovic's goal.

When they met at Stamford Bridge for the second leg, goals came in late as Chelsea scored in the 81st minute to possibly send them to the quarters, but David Luiz found the back of the net against his old club to send the match to extra time. PSG found themselves staring elimination after a penalty shot from Eden Hazard gave Chelsea the lead, but Thiago Silva, the man who conceded the penalty, lifted the team with a goal in the 114th.

That goal tied things 2-2 in the game and 3-3 on aggregate, sending PSG to the quarters due to away goals rule.

On the other side, Barcelona were handed another English club in Manchester City. They won the first leg at the Etihad 2-1 behind a brace from Luis Suarez and they wrapped things up in the second leg with a 1-0 win to win the tie 3-1 on aggregate.

Now PSG and Barcelona meet again with only one team moving on to the semis.
