Club Brugge KV vs Paris SG Prediction & Betting tips
The first round in the international group phase will be completed this week – the third matchday is on the program. Decisions are not yet possible, but the first tendencies are clearly visible.
In Group A everything reckoned with a duel between Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain for the group victory. But so far only PSG could fill this role and leads the table with two victories. On Tuesday evening in the duel between Bruges and PSG, according to current quotas, guests are the clear favorite!
However, the Belgian league leaders must not be underestimated. After all, the team has not lost in six games in the UEFA Champions League group stage. Only moments were missing to the sensational victory at Real Madrid in the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.
Nonetheless, the favorite role is clearly in the still-battered star ensemble from France to find.
Bruges:
The Belgian top club missed the title last season and had to fight through the qualification. The Clement team remained defeated by Dynamo Kiev and LASK.
After the Belgians also had to take on the first two group match days no defeat, the Belgian club has not lost in ten Champions League games now!
The group stage ended Brugge last year with four unbeaten games (one win, three draws), holding zero three times in a row. The goalless draw against Galatasaray Istanbul on Matchday 1 was the fourth CL game without conceding. In Santiago Bernabeu, the team of Philippe Clement had to accept the equalizer only in the 85th minute.
Despite these impressive numbers, it should not go unmentioned that Bruges won just three of their last 20 games in the group stage of the premier class. All in all, the 15-time Belgian champions will participate in the group stage for the seventh time, but have never reached the knockout stage in the UEFA Champions League.
Confidence in the sovereign leaders of the Belgian league should not be lacking these days. The team of head coach Philippe Clement (who was previously active as a player and has now been recruited by the champion KRC Genk) is this year’s unconquered. Clement has a 12-5-0 record after 17 competitive matches and averaged 2.41 points per game. Between Bruges and PSG are offered for the forecast on the double chance 1 or X odds of up to 2.50.
Bruges has made a name for itself with strong performances and PSG will not make the same mistake as Real Madrid and be surprised by the Belgians. Despite the convincing statistics this season, a point win against the Tuchel protégés would definitely be a surprise.
PSG:
The contract for Thomas Tuchel is clear – only with a convincing season in the UEFA Champions League, the German will sit next year at Paris Saint-Germain on the bench. In the last three seasons failed the Elf from the city of love in the knockout round of the premier class. At least the semi-final is spent as a goal, basically, but only counts for the sheikhs winning the handle pot!
After two games in the group stage PSG can at least plan for the knockout stages. After the surprisingly clear opening win against Real Madrid PSG retained the upper hand of the Turkish champions Galatasaray Istanbul thanks to a goal by Mauro Icardi. The victory in Turkey was a special game for PSG – after all, it was the 100th appearance in the UEFA Champions League. Six points from two games are already more than half the battle!
After the international break, the French champion was already on Friday evening in action. A situation that caused trouble in the PSG camp. Tuchel, an advocate of the tight schedule anyway, once again warned that the many games minimized the spectacle for the fans and “kills” the health of the players.
The staffing situation in the Frenchman’s camp seems to be changing for the better. Although Superstar Neymar injured again in the national team, but recently returned Kylian Mbappe back. In addition, Edinson Cavani was in the 4-1 win against Nice for the first time in the matchday squad, so his comeback could be so in Bruges. Thomas Tuchel has to renounce Neymar and his compatriots Julian Draxler and Thilo Kehrer as well as youngster Colin Dagba.
Possibly the absence of Neymar after his transfer posse but anyway no harm, quality is still lacking in the offensive. In recent weeks, the shape curve was clearly up and PSG scored again many goals.
