Borussia Dortmund team news
Mats Hummers was sent off against RB Leipzig at the weekend, but the veteran German defender is available for Wednesday's game. Dortmund are without Emre Can, however, after he picked up his third yellow card of the group stage in the 3-1 win over Milan.
The hosts have several players skulking around the treatment room. Sebastien Haller (knee) and Felix Nmecha (hip) are not expected back until mid-January while Julian Ryerson will likely be out until February after suffering ligament damage. Edin Terzic will also have to do without teenagers Julien Duranville and Youssofa Moukoko until the new year.

Dortmund predicted lineup vs PSG (4-2-3-1): Kobel; Wolf, Hummels, Schlotterbeck, Bensebaini; Ozcan, Sabitzer; Reus, Brandt, Bynoe-Gittens; Fullkrug.
PSG team news
Ousmane Dembele misses out after picking up his third yellow card of the competition against Newcastle. The talented playmaker Lee Kang-in could replace the French winger.
Fabian Ruiz is a relatively new addition to PSG's injury list. The midfielder is out until the new year after dislocating his shoulder. However, Warren Zaire-Emery returned to the fold last weekend in the win over Nantes.
Goalkeepers Sergio Rico (head) and Keylor Navas (back) are still out of action while Nuno Mendes (hamstring) and Presnel Kimpembe (Achilles) ease their way back from lengthy absences.

Borussia Dortmund vs PSG score prediction
Dortmund may be through but don't expect them to take their foot off the gas on Wednesday. The Germans must avoid defeat to guarantee top spot and a theoretically kinder draw in the knockout rounds.
However, the hosts head into the contest having lost back-to-back games and they'll be without midfield powerhouse Can. PSG, who also have a big absentee in Dembele, proved to be a cut above in the reverse fixture, and they desperately need to make sure of their qualification here.
PSG have lost both their away games in the Champions League this season, but they could secure a huge three points in Dortmund to top Group F. Expect Kylian Mbappe to take a great contest by the scruff of the neck.
Prediction: Borussia Dortmund 1-2 PSG
