Swedish football club Malmö FF (1-3-0, 3 points) is set to face Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain (2-1-1, 7 points) at the Swedbank Stadion in Malmö, Sweden on November 25 for a 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League Group A matchup.

This is the second meeting between these two clubs in the group stage of the competitions, with the first one held at the Parc des Princes ending in a 2-0 triumph for Laurent Blanc's side last September 15.

Malmö FF was crushed by Shakhtar Donetsk, 0-4, in their match last November 3 at the Arena Lviv in Lviv, Ukraine as the Miners avenged their previous 0-1 loss to the Sky Blues, as per Goal.

Four players from Shakhtar scored a goal each, namely Oleksandr Hladkyy, Darijo Srna, Eduardo da Silva, and Alex Teixeira en route to the lopsided win.

Meanwhile, Les Parisiens suffered their first loss of the group stage against powerhouse La Liga squad Real Madrid, 0-1, in a marquee encounter at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid, Spain on November 3, via BBC Sport.

Los Blancos defender Nacho scored the lone goal of the match in the first half for Rafael Benítez's side. The first match between PSG and Real ended up in a goalless draw in Paris.

Les Rouge-et-Bleu is simply too star-studded for Himmelsblått even if they are playing on the road with global football names such as Angel di Maria, Edinson Cavani, and Zlatan Ibrahimović all suiting up for PSG.

The prediction is a 3-0 romp for Paris Saint-Germain.

Malmö FF starting lineup (4-4-2 formation): Wiland; Tinnerholm, Arnason, Bengtsson, Konate; Rodic, Lewicki, Adu, Berget; Djurdjic, Rosenberg

Paris Saint-Germain starting lineup (4-3-3 formation): Trapp; Aurier, Thiago, Luiz, Maxwell; Verratti, Motta, Matuidi; di Maria, Ibrahimović, Cavani
