Paris Saint Germain vs Manchester City: Prediction and Betting Tips

Paris Saint Germain

With five recruits that the summer transfer market by storm, PSG feel they are real contenders to win the CL. Surely Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos (injured), and Donnaruma will be a great addition to Pocchetino’s squad. Therefore, Les Parisiennes have the chance to prove themselves against one of the best teams in Europe.

It wasn’t the start PSG fans expected in the Champions League, however. Surprisingly, PSG drew with Club Brugge in Belgium. Hence playing at home, Pocchetino’s team must play to win to stay in contention with City for the group’s top position. In any case, it will be interesting to see whether Messi is fit to play as he missed PSG’s last match. 

Paris Saint Germain 

• PSG scored on nine of their last ten matches
• Pocchetino’s team won their last six home matches
• Les Parisiens scored on average three goals per match in their last five home games

Manchester City in a real test at Parc Des Princes

Pep Guardiola came the closest in winning the Champions League last season with Manchester City outside of Barcelona. Indeed, the Spaniard and his team reached the final of the CL last season and lost to Chelsea. Moreover, the Citizens missed the chance to win a historic four titles in a season and ended up with two.

To start their 2021/22 CL campaign, City beat RB Leipzig 6-3 in their opening Group A match. By all means, the Citizens will have another go at the CL title this year and the first match was proof. In effect, Guardiola added Jack Grealish to his squad this season who is arguably one of the best English players. Hence the offensive power of the Citizens will be even more effective.

Manchester city key stats

• City are undefeated in their last seven matches
• The Citizens had two clean sheets in their last two matches
• Guardiola’s team won the meetings last season against PSG in the CL

Paris Saint Germain vs Manchester City Prediction and Betting Tips

Despite enjoying a better season so far than Manchester City, PSG are the underdogs with the bookies in this match. Vbet is offering 3.09 for a PSG win which is very high since they lost both of their last two matches last season in the semi-final.

On the other side, the Citizens lost just one CL match in 14 since the 2020/21 season. Also, apart from the final match City are undefeated in ten away matches.

Considering both teams’ scoring records lately, we expect both of them to score in this match. Notably, they have some of the most prolific scorers in the world and that outcome looks almost inevitable. Moreover, the bookies agree as well with odds of 1.50 at Vbet.
