In an exciting Champions League clash on Wednesday, PSG will take on Atlético Madrid.
Paris Saint-Germain comes into the match on the back of a 1-0 Ligue 1 victory over RC Lens, where they controlled 68% of the ball and made 18 attempts on goal, with Ousmane Dembélé finding the net early in the game. Over their last six matches, PSG has scored 10 goals, averaging 1.67 per game under manager Luis Enrique.
Atlético Madrid also won their previous La Liga match, defeating UD Las Palmas 1-0. They held 58% possession and managed 15 goal attempts, with goals from Giuliano Simeone and Alexander Sørloth. Across their last six games, Diego Simeone’s side has scored eight goals while conceding six.
For PSG, Presnel Kimpembe, Gonçalo Ramos, and Lucas Hernández are sidelined due to injuries. Luis Enrique is expected to go with a 4-3-3 lineup, featuring Gianluigi Donnarumma, Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, Willian Pacho, Nuno Mendes, Warren Zaïre-Emery, Vítinha, Fabian Ruiz, Ousmane Dembélé, Kang-in Lee, and Bradley Barcola.
Atlético Madrid is likely to opt for a 4-4-2 formation, with a lineup including Jan Oblak, Nahuel Molina, Axel Witsel, Robin Le Normand, Reinildo Mandava, Rodrigo De Paul, Koke, Conor Gallagher, Samuel Dias Lino, Julián Álvarez, and Antoine Griezmann.
Prediction
PSG is expected to come out strong, potentially securing a 2-0 win over Atlético Madrid, who might struggle to find the back of the net. Experts are predicting a low-scoring game with fewer than 3.5 goals overall.
