Real Madrid vs PSG Live Stats & Betting Odds
Real Madrid Prediction – Can Real Madrid gain revenge?
Mathematically, Real Madrid still need a result from one of their last 2 matches in Group A to make absolutely certain of gaining qualification to the next stage of this season’s Champions League despite sitting in 2nd place and holding a comfortable 5-point lead over 3rd placed Club Brugge.
Real Madrid are sure to be tested to their limits in this mouthwatering encounter and although they hold home advantage, there’s no guarantees of a result in this evening’s tie as the hosts have already been handed a heavy 3-0 defeat by PSG in Paris on Matchday 1.
The hosts have since recovered to grab a point in a 2-2 draw at home with Club Brugge before posting back-to-back wins against Turkish side, Galatasaray in a 1-0 win away from home before trouncing them 6-0 at the Bernabeu.
The jury still seems to be out though on Real Madrid’s consistency and with this in mind, the goals markets look more favourable as 3 of Real Madrid’s matches so far in the group have resulted in over 2.5 goals, while 6 of their last 9 matches in all competitions have seen 3 goals or more scored.
PSG Prediction – Can PSG extend 100% record?
Having won all of their 4 matches to date in Group A, PSG still hold a 100% record during their Champions League campaign and duly sit top of the group with a commanding 5-point lead over 2nd placed Real Madrid ahead of this Matchday 5 encounter in Madrid.
The visitors inflicted a heavy 3-0 win over Real Madrid on Matchday 1 which set the tone for PSG’s subsequent matches and they didn’t disappoint as they recorded wins over Galatasaray 1-0 away from home and home and away wins over Belgian outfit, Club Brugge, winning 5-0 in Belgium and 1-0 in Paris.
14 of PSG’s last 18 Champions League ties have also seen 3 goals or more scored as their matches have featured plenty of goals on the Champions League stage, and there’s no reason to believe that this upcoming encounter against Real Madrid will be any different.
PSG possess plenty of goalscoring options with the likes of Di Maria (6 goals) in midfield along with their potent strike force comprising of Icardi (6 goals), Mbappe (5 goals), Neymar (4 goals) and Cavani (2 goals), and they could score the necessary goals required all by themselves!
