On Wednesday evening, Paris Saint-Germain Handball return to European action as they travel to the GETEC Arena in Magdeburg for their EHF Champions League Matchday 3 clash.
1 - THE TABLE
The Germans started their European adventure very well. With victories in Bucharest (28-30) and at home to Zagreb (35-25), they currently top Group A, thanks to a better goal difference (+12) than Veszprรฉm (+9).
For their part, the capital club returned to winning ways in the Champions League. After an opening defeat in Veszprรฉm (36-34), they unlocked their counter against Plock (37-33).

2- HITMEN FACE OFF
If we look at the ranking of the best scorers of the competition, we find Tim Hornke in third place. The Magdeburg right-winger has already found the net 15 times - from just 18 attempts (83% success rate). In the last match, he hit 11 out of 13.
You were waiting for it. A very epic round 2 with a lot of high quality goals!๐ฅ #ehfcl
