Liverpool vs Paris SG Prediction & Betting tips
In the first round there is a real topper on the program: finalist of last season Liverpool receives the French supreme ruler Paris Saint Germain. Which team can hand out the first tick?
Liverpool:
Liverpool is continuing this season. After the first four league games were won from West Ham United, Brighton, Crystal Palace and Leicester City, The Reds crossed swords with Tottenham Hotspur last Saturday. At Wembley, Liverpool won its first top of the season: 1-2.
Five minutes before the break, Georginio Wijnaldum opened the score. Because of his controlling role at Liverpool, the Rotterdammer is less often near the enemy goal, so a goal of his brokerage in a Liverpool shirt is a rarity. Roberto Firmino made it 0-2 ten minutes after half-time. Tottenham did not overcome this blow any more. Erik Lamela’s tie goal in the 93rd minute came too late to make the game even more exciting.
Against Paris Saint Germain, Jurgen Klopp relies again on his trusted trio Mané, Firmino and Salah. All three attackers scored previous CL campaign at least ten times, a record in the Champions League. In addition, Liverpool established a record of the largest number of goals in a CL season. Between qualifying in August and the final in May, The Reds scored no less than 47 times.
Paris Saint Germain:
Paris Saint Germain has achieved an impressive hegemony in his own country. Since the Qatar Sports Investments Group took over the team and financially supported it in 2009, the team became five times champion between 2013 and 2018. Now that money is no longer a problem, PSG also wants to raise its profile in a European context. A sloppy 400 million invested in Neymar and Mbappé are part of this.
In recent years, PSG easily through the group phase, but then it is usually quickly with the French. In the past two seasons, the eighth final was the final stop (against Real Madrid and Barcelona), while the team was eliminated in the quarterfinals four years earlier. This year must be the year in which PSG wants to make a serious throw to the cup with the big ears. For PSG concepts last summer was therefore fairly quiet. Only Thilo Kehrer, reserve goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon and Juan Bernat were attracted this summer, while no basic player left.
The statistics against English teams do not speak in favor of PSG. The team of Thomas Tuchel did not win the last four encounters with English opponents.
