On a three-match winless streak, the Black and Yellows have lost their last two games, but despite struggling domestically this season, Edin Terzic's men have shown great strength in the Champions League so far.
After salvaging a late draw against Newcastle thanks to a controversial injury-time penalty, PSG need a win to secure qualification to the knockout rounds, although a draw could be enough depending on the result of the AC Milan-Newcastle United game.
PSG are four points clear at the top of Ligue 1 after two domestic wins and will be in good spirits as they look to end a three-match away losing streak in the Champions League.
Dortmund will be without captain Emre Can, who is suspended, and Thomas Meunier, who isn't eligible to play in the Champions League.
There are question marks over the involvement of Marius Wolf and Marcel Sabitzer, who are both in contention to start if deemed fit. Sebastien Haller returns to the squad.
PSG will be without Navas, Kimpembe, Mendes, Fabian Ruiz and Dembélé.
