They're up against a seemingly unbeatable Liverpool side, but if they pull off the miraculous, Partey could see his 86 OVR increase.

There's not much that needs to be said when it comes to Liverpool this year - the Merseyside club are cruising in the Premier League and are yet to be beaten.

We fully expect Mane's card to upgrade after this round of the UCL.

Liverpool - Joe Gomez (85 OVR)

After Joel Matip's injury, the young Joe Gomez had to step up - so far the English centre half has excelled alongside Virgil van Dijk.

Jadon Sancho has been on fire for Dortmund this year - with 13 goals and 14 assists in the Bundesliga this season, he could be the difference in Dortmund's clash against PSG.
