PSG The Parisians are currently struggling at the start of the Champions League group stage. The team narrowly defeated Girona in the first round (1-0), then lost away to Arsenal (0-2). In their last match, Luis Enrique's charges were only able to draw in a home game against PSV (1-1). The club is only in the middle of the league table. It's also worth noting that in their last five consecutive matches in this tournament, the French side has failed to score more than one goal. Defenders Lucas Hernandez and Presnel Kimpembe, as well as striker Goncalo Ramos, will miss the game due to injuries. No more than two goals were scored in PSG's last five Champions League games. The club conceded first in 6 of their last 7 matches in this European competition. In their last 18 matches in this tournament, PSG have only won twice in the first half (10 draws and 6 losses). Atletico Madrid The Spaniards started well, defeating Leipzig at home (2-1). However, what followed was a collapse – two consecutive defeats with a combined score of 1-7. Atletico was first thrashed away by Benfica (0-4), and in their last match, they lost at home to Lille (1-3). Notably, the last time Atletico lost at their own stadium in the Champions League was in November 2021. As a result, Diego Simeone's men are placed 27th in the league table. Defender Jose Maria Gimenez will miss the game due to suspension. Three or more goals were scored in regular time in Atletico's last six matches in this tournament. Both teams scored within the 90 minutes in 5 of Atletico's last 6 Champions League games. The Spaniards conceded first in 8 of their last 10 away matches in this European competition. PSG vs Atletico Madrid: Match Prediction Both teams have been largely disappointing in the group stage of the Champions League so far. To advance to the Round of 16 of this tournament, the clubs need to win. This is especially true for the French side, whose remaining matches are much tougher than those of the Spaniards. PSG still has to face Bayern Munich, Manchester City, and Stuttgart, with only the game against Salzburg potentially being an easier fixture. If Luis Enrique's men do not secure three points in the 4th round, their chances of even making it into the top 24 will be significantly lower. PSG plays well at home in the Champions League. If the club loses at home, it's usually to top-tier teams. Meanwhile, Atletico looks frankly poor away from home. In their last 10 away matches in this tournament, Simeone's charges have managed just one victory (over Feyenoord), with the rest ending in two draws and seven losses. My prediction is a "PSG Victory" with odds of 1.82. Author: Oleksandr Oleksenko
