RB Leipzig vs Paris SG Prediction & Betting tips
It has been 78 days since RB Leipzig and Paris Saint-Germain faced each other in the semi-finals of the Champions League in Lisbon. At that time the bulls had no chance and lost 3-0. On Wednesday it should look completely different in their own arena, because then the Saxons are thinking of a revenge and want to put the French champions in their place.
PSG coach Thomas Tuchel will try to be the first German coach to win an away game in a German coaching duel in the Champions League since 1999. At that time, Ottmar Hitzfeld still triumphed with Bayern on the Betzenberg in Kaiserslautern. The red devils were looked after by Otto Rehhagel at the time. Doesn’t sound like a prediction on the guests in the match between RB Leipzig and PSG is the right choice.
A division of points seems to be ruled out, as PSG have never drawn in 14 games in the European Cup against German clubs. The odds comparison of the betting base sees the French as favorites and they want to live up to them. In the table of this group both teams are tied with three counters. Manchester United lead this pool with six points, Istanbul Basaksehir have not yet torn anything and are at the bottom of the ranking.
It remains to be seen whether Julian Nagelsmann’s team can iron out the 5-0 defeat at Manchester United. For six years no German team has lost higher in the premier class. This bankruptcy may have gnawed especially at the coach’s ego. But it is to be feared that on Wednesday between RB Leipzig and PSG a tip on the guests will be more successful.
RB Leipzig:
At the moment things are happening in rapid succession. One English week follows the next. So it is certainly a very bad time to have the first earnings crisis of the season, which is the case at RasenBallsport at the moment. Up until last week, the bulls were still unbeaten and recently received two bankruptcies in a row. In the Bundesliga table, Leipzig is only in third place.
The prognosis for a win on Wednesday does not sound very convincing. The Bulls have their problems with the teams from Ligue 1. In the five European Cup games against French teams, RB celebrated only one victory. Therefore, in the match between RB Leipzig and PSG, the odds on a home win are possibly negligible.
After losing 5-0 in the Champions League against Manchester United, Leipzig suffered their first defeat in the Bundesliga at the weekend. At Borussia Mönchengladbach, the bulls lost 1-0. In the league the top position is gone and with a possible third defeat in a row, advancement in the premier class would be a long way off.
Coach Julian Nagelsmann has some personal concerns. Marcel Halstenberg, Nordi Mukiele and Tyler Adams are all hit. A deployment on Wednesday is questionable for all three. Lukas Klostermann and Konrad Laimer, who are on the cops list of injuries and can only keep their fingers crossed from the stands, are certainly not there.
PSG:
The headlines reported from Paris this season are not always positive. The French champions are at the moment something like the Hollywood FC of European football, which is to be expected when putting together a roster with a number of extroverted superstars.
After a false start to the season, things are currently at least a little better in terms of sport. In Ligue 1, Thomas Tuchel’s team has already climbed to the top again. There are three wins in a row without conceding a goal. Paris is also unbeaten in six away games in the Champions League. Therefore, the best bookmakers in the duel between RB Leipzig and PSG give a slight prognosis for an away win.
Last weekend, Thomas Tuchel’s team secured a clear 3-0 away win at FC Nantes. However, the game was goalless until half-time, before Ander Herrera broke the spell in the 47th minute. Kylian Mbappe and Pablo Sarabia scored two more goals.
However, Kylian Mbappe and Moise Kean suffered injuries. The use of the two attackers in Leipzig on Wednesday is still uncertain. Thomas Tuchel, on the other hand, has certainty with Julian Draxler, Juan Bernat, Neymar, Mauro Icardi and Marco Verratti. All of these actors will be sidelined due to injuries.
