Paris SG vs St Etienne Prediction & Betting tips
Football has been in a compulsory break in the country of the world champion since mid-March. Ligue 1 was canceled and Paris Saint-Germain, thanks to the big lead, was declared a champion. Ending the cup competitions was not that easy, because the final between PSG and St. Etienne is still on the agenda in the Coupe de France.
The fact that this cup final can be played on Friday is a small step back towards normality. This match has absolutely nothing to do with the Ligue 1 table. The current form of the two finalists can only be determined from a few test games that were played in advance.
The best bookmakers in the duel between PSG and St. Etienne according to odds give a clear forecast of a victory for the master. This is due, among other things, to an outstanding cup record by the capitals, who have won nine of twelve possible titles in Coupe de France and Coupe de la Ligue in the past six years.
Nevertheless, ASSE will do everything it can to snip the overpowering opponent, whereby after such a long break the competition is missing, which is a clear advantage for the team with the higher quality. Therefore, the first tendency between PSG and St. Etienne is clearly a tip in the direction of Paris.
PSG:
The first title of the season is already closed. The next trophy in the Coupe de France is scheduled to follow on Friday, before the next weekend will continue with the final in the Coupe de la Ligue against Lyon. In the Champions League, Paris Saint-Germain also has good chances. It could be a perfect year for Thomas Tuchel and his team.
Everything that happened before the game was stopped in France can hardly be consulted for the current constitution. However, Paris played three friendly matches to get their rhythm back, scoring three wins and 20-0 goals. This shows that Thomas Tuchel’s team are in a good mood and that between PSG and St. Etienne the odds of a victory for the champion are probably the best choice.
There was a clear 4-0 win against Celtic Glasgow on Tuesday. Kylian Mbappe and Neymar took an early 2-0 lead. Ander Herrera and Pablo Sarabia made it 4-0 in the second section with their goals. 23 players got the Paris game practice. Overall, it was an expression of the strength of the entire squad.
The French media are expected to make no major changes to the team that started against Celtic.
Juan Bernat is the only player who is not available due to muscular complaints, which significantly increases the chances of use for Thilo Kehrer. Crowd favorite Edinson Cavani and Thomas Meunier have already left the club.
St. Etienne:
If it weren’t for the final in the Coupe de France, ASSE’s season would have to be labeled as one disappointment. In Ligue 1, Claude Puel’s team was in dire need of relegation before the demolition and could basically be grateful that the French association decided to end the league prematurely.
For the team of Claude Puel the 17th place in the French upper house is at the end. Nevertheless, ASSE is flirting with a possible victory in the Coupe de France by participating in the Europa League. The preparation for this endgame was mixed. There were three wins at first, but St. Etienne suffered two losses in the last two games.
Last weekend, Claude Puel’s team played two full games against RSC Anderlecht. First there was a 1: 2 defeat before the Belgians won 1: 0. The last endurance test before the final failed, which continues to speak for a forecast of the capital between PSG and St. Etienne.
William Saliba, whose loan agreement could not be extended, and Yohan Cabaye and Franck Honorat, who both let their contracts expire, are no longer among them. All three players were still in the semi-final against Stade Rennes. Timothee Kolodziejczak and Gabriel Silva will move into the starting line-up.
