\"It's clear that the fixture list is more congested. We have two extra matches. We are going to analyse the competition, and we'll see how this one or that one performs. But it's a very high-level competition, we know that every game will be tough,\u201d said Enrique in the pre-match conference.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The usual format consisted of each team playing six games against three teams in the group stage, facing each team once at home and once away, but the new league format will see them play four home and four away games against different opposition beginning from Thursday\u2019s encounter when they host Girona.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
PSG have had an explosive start to their life without Kylian Mbappe with the side having scored 16 goals in their four wins at the start of the Ligue 1 season. The head coach acknowledged Girona\u2019s impressive performance last season which saw them book a spot in their first ever UCL campaign.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"I must acknowledge that no one expected to see them here. It's their first time. But I saw their games last season, they play great football. They were even top of the league table.

I wish them all the best, except against us,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
