Laurent Blanc hopeful PSG can overcome ‘complicated’ schedule to beat Chelsea again

PSG are 17 points ahead of their nearest rivals Angers in the Ligue 1 table.

Paris St Germain coach Laurent Blanc hopes a “complicated” looking start to 2016 will not hinder their efforts to once again edge past Chelsea in the Champions League.

PSG are due to meet the Blues in the last 16 of the Champions League this season, in a repeat of the 2014/15 campaign where Blanc’s side eked out 1-1 and 2-2 draws to seal an aggregate win on away goals.
