Kylian Mbappe will be bidding to help Paris Saint-Germain reach the semi-finals of the 2023-24 Champions League at the expense of Barcelona on Tuesday night.

PSG will head to Spain for the second leg of the quarter-final trailing 3-2 from the first leg in Paris.

Mbappe found it difficult to make his mark in the clash last week, but the tie is still delicately poised, with the French champions more than capable of turning it around.

The 25-year-old is seemingly set to make the move to Real Madrid on a free transfer this summer, but he will be determined to finish the campaign on a positive note.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how the France international has performed against Barcelona in the past, and he could be facing the Catalan outfit on a regular basis from next season.

Mbappe has tackled Barcelona on three occasions during his professional career, and in his first-ever appearance against the Catalan outfit, he struck a famous hat-trick.

Indeed, the ex-Monaco youngster netted three times against the La Liga giants in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 affair back in 2021, with PSG recording a 4-1 victory at Camp Nou.

Mbappe then netted once in the return leg in Paris, with the French giants drawing 1-1 in order to advance to the quarter-finals of the competition courtesy of a 5-2 aggregate success.

The Frenchman then played the full 90 minutes against Barcelona last week, but he found it difficult to make his mark in the home loss for Luis Enrique's side, with his record therefore standing at one win, one draw and one defeat from three games, scoring four times in the process.

Mbappe, who has 39 goals and nine assists in 41 games for PSG this season, had three shots and one successful dribble against Barcelona last time out, while he finished the match with a pass success rate of 88%.
