Matchday 3 of the Champions League commences on Tuesday night and our next preview features a clash between Club Brugge and PSG as the betting tips continue at the Jan Breydelstadion.
Club Brugge Prediction – Can Club Brugge stall visitors?
Tuesday night’s hosts, Club Brugge, bring an impressive and encouraging 20-match unbeaten run in all competitions into this Matchday 3 clash with French champions, PSG, so the hosts will be in confident mood that they can reduce the deficit on the Group A leaders here.
Club Brugge have also put together a 10-match unbeaten run in the Champions League too prior to tonight’s encounter with PSG, although this includes 4 wins and 6 draws, and on home turf they’ve managed to actually register just 2 wins out of their last 11 matches at this level.
So, what appears to be an excellent run of results on the surface actually changes into an average run of results at Champions League level once you peel away the various layers! Incidentally, Ckub Brugge’s 2 wins during this average 11-match sequence were against Dynamo Kiev and LASK Linz in the qualifying rounds.
Another worrying aspect for the hosts ahead of this clash is that they’ve failed to score in 6 of these last 11 Champions League ties at home, and they’ll be up against a free-scoring PSG outfit tonight.
PSG Prediction – Can PSG take another step towards knockout phase?
Having won both of their opening matches in Group A of this season’s Champions League with victories against Real Madrid 3-0 and a 1-0 win away from home at Galatasaray, PSG are sitting pretty at the top of the group with maximum points and a 4-point buffer over Tuesday night’s opponents, Club Brugge.
PSG’s only blip in an otherwise perfect run of results have late saw the French champions suffer a shock 2-0 loss at home to Reims in Ligue 1 but 9 wins from their last 10 matches underlines the great start that PSG have made to this new season.
Overall, the visitors have lost just 1 of their last 9 ties in the Champions League which was a 3-1 defeat at home to Manchester United last season, but 6 wins out of these last 9 matches as well as winning their last 3 away ties on the trot should see PSG in control on Tuesday night.
Wins at Crvena Zvezda 4-1, Manchester United 2-0 and a 1-0 victory at Galatasaray should see the visitors in confident mood ahead of their trip to Belgium.
