Barça are again alone at the top of the group B with 22 points, two more than Magdeburg and four more than Veszprém. Porto remain seventh with six points, two behind Wisla Plock, so they can still reach the play-offs.
In group A, PSG are third with 15 points, only one behind second-placed Aalborg. The Parisiens want a direct route to the quarter-finals, while Kielce will probably have to settle for a place in the play-offs.
22:14 | FULL-TIME
PSG remain in contention for a top-two finish in group A after a fine performance against Kielce. In the end the scoreline won't do Kielce any favours because it was much closer than it looks.
However, the Parisians had the answer to everything Kielce threw at them. Andreas Palicka was simply brilliant with 19 saves (42 per cent) and a lot of them were nicely timed. The Poles had their chance in the second half, but Palicka saved Daniel Dujshebaev's shot which would have brought the guests to only a one goal deficit.
Tønnesen, Syprzak and Prandi were PSG's highest scorers with six goals to their name, while Sicko scored seven for Kielce.
22:10 | FULL-TIME
A high-scoring game in which Porto put up a decent fight, but they never really managed to make Barça feel uncomfortable. Terrific opening 10 minutes of the second half proved crucial in Barça's 11th win of the campaign. Gómez Abelló and Richardson ended up with seven goals each, with Perez de Vargas making important saves in the moments when Porto's resistance was breaking.
22:05
Steins scores into an empty net, as Kielce played with an extra player because of Olejniczak's two-minute suspension. Thrastarson immediately pulls one back for the Poles and the difference is again four goals (29:25).
21:59
Amazing, another Palicka's clutch save! This time from Daniel Dujshebaev's six-metre shot. On the other side Tønnesen and Syprzak find the net and PSG are once again four goals in front (27:23). Palicka is without a doubt man of the match so far.
We didn't forget the match in Barcelona, but it's one-sided there. The Spaniards are comfortably in control, 36:26.
21:57
Here's that Palicka's double-save in such important moments! However, two quick goals from Sicko and Kielce is only two goals behind (25:21).
21:50
Wow, what saves from Wolff and Palicka! Wolff with five stops in the second half for Kielce, and then Palicka responds with a phenomenal double-save! Incredible. Now Sole and Nikola Karabatic find the net and PSG lead 23:20.
21:46
Gómez Abelló and Mem score to put Barça 10 goals in front (28:18)! Surely it's all over now. Brilliant period of play from the Spanish champions.
21:41
Barça are running away with this match now. They are firing on all cylinders and lead Porto 26:18. Resende with no choice but to call a timeout.
PSG still with the lead against Kielce, 18:16. Just a reminder, the Polish side are heavily handicapped tonight. Both line players are injured and unavailable, Tournat and Karalek. Still, they are fighting with what they have.
21:34
Second half in Barcelona is under way. The match in Paris will resume shortly as well.
21:25
Goalkeepers are in fine form so far. PSG's Palicka has saved 10 shots, although Kielce's Mestric also had a good game with five. PSG lead 15:14, but Kielce will probably be slightly more pleased with that result having scored three goals in a row before the break. Prandi leads the way for PSG with five goals from six shots, while Sicko and Nahi each scored three for Kielce.
In Spain, Barça's Perez de Vargas is also on 10 saves, Mitrevski has six. Barça's power in attack is beginning to show and it's only a question how long can Porto keep up. They've scored 15 goals, but conceded way too many as well. Mem, Wanne, Janc and Richardson with four goals each for the hosts. Veitia Valdés and Areia with three for Porto.
21:20 | HALF-TIME
21:12
As we enter the final five minutes of the first half, PSG lead Kielce 14:11, while Barça's lead is now 16:13.
21:10
Heroics from Perez de Vargas (10 saves, 47 per cent) are beginning to pay dividends for Barça as they develop a five-goal lead (16:11).
21:06
Palicka is racking up the saves for PSG. He's on seven now and the French champions score three goals in a row to lead 10:7.
21:00
Having been defeated against Benfica the previous weekend in the domestic league, Porto are doing a good job keeping up with Barça's pace. Christensen's goal gave them their first lead (8:7), but now the hosts are in front again, 10:9.
20:58
Kielce have scored on almost every offence so far, but PSG are beginning to hit their stride as well. After 4:1 and 6:4 for the last year's finalists, it's now 6:6 thanks to Tønnesen's goal.
20:50
Strong start from Kielce as they score the first three goals of the match (3:0) before Grebille nets the first time for the hosts. Interestingly, Mestric started on goal instead of Wolff for Kielce and has already made two saves.
Barça - Porto 3:3 after two succesive goals from the guests.
20:45
There's the first throw-off in Barcelona and Paris!
20:42
Barça's head coach Carlos Ortega said before the match:
"Champions League matches are the matches that everyone always wants to play and we haven't played them at the Palau for a long time. We really want to be reunited with the fans in a match like this. Porto forces to prepare many things before playing against them: they can defend in 6-0, in 5-1, or even with a mixed defence. In attack they are difficult to handle. We are Barça, we want to win all the games and we don't just want to reach the quarter-finals, we want to finish top of the group if possible."
His counterpart Carlos Resende, Porto's head coach, responded:
"We'll be playing against one of the best teams in the world in our sport, so we'll have to step up and take advantage of this excellent opportunity to be among the best! If we can add points to our rankings in this game, it will be a very good result!"
20:36
Spanish champions and the holders of a record 11 CL titles, hold top spot in group B, tied with Magdeburg on 20 points. Porto are seventh with six points.
20:31
In less than 15 minutes, PSG and Kielce face off in an important group A clash. Both teams have 13 points, three less than second-placed Aalborg. Who ever wins tonight, still has a chance to reach the quarter-finals. In the reverse fixture in round 3 Kielce won 30:29 with eight goals from Sicko and seven from Karacic.
20:27
As we're approaching the final two matches of round 12, check out some of the pics from Kiel and Veszprém where the hosts enjoyed their deserved victories.
This feels really good. We were aware how hard this game is going to be coming here, but I feel like we've displayed a really high level of handball today deservedly winning the game in the end. We've started it off amazingly - attack and defense were functioning incredibly well, and our goalkeeper Mandic was there to back us up. Later on we've slowed down a bit, but in the end we've once again managed to prove what we're made of taking a big and important win here today in Norway.
