PSG to take on FC Differdange 03
Following the exclusion of Greek club Olympiakos Volos from the Europa League, UEFA has named Luxembourg outfit FC Differdange 03 as Paris Saint-Germain's next opponents in the competition.
UEFA has given until midnight Monday August 15 for any appeal, given it takes three days to prepare a football match in the best conditions.
