Paris Saint-Germain vs. Barcelona [UEFA Champions League]
In their last seven Ligue 1 matches, PSG have won six and played a draw, scoring 17 goals and conceding only three. Going into this clash, PSG who have not lost at home all season are tipped by SportyBet at odds of (3.14) to win at the end of normal regulation time.
Barcelona defeated PSG 3-1 at the Parc des Princes the last time the two teams played in the UEFA Champions League - with PSG only scoring through a late own goal. Unai Emery's side who are yet to lose at home should give Barcelona some hard time.
It has been 20 games since any team stopped Barcelona from scoring, as they go to France having only lost once since November 6. Barcelona are odds-on to grab an away win at the Parc des Princes with (2.26). The same firm SportyBet offer that both teams play draw at odds of (3.46) after 90 minutes.
These two teams are not strangers to one another as they have met six times in this competition, since 2014 - with PSG going unbeaten in the first three of those matches and also losing in each of the last three matches. SportyBet believes the second half of the fixture has the chance of recording more goals at a price of (2.01), while the two teams are offered to score in this meeting at odds of (1.57).
The visitors’ chance of scoring first in the game goes for (2.10) considering the fact that their 'MSN' attackers are in good form, especially with Lionel Messi who has 12 goals in his last 15 appearances and Luis Suarez scoring 10 goals from nine matches. The hosts are tipped to silence Barcelona's attackers and keep a clean sheet by SportyBet at (3.85), even though key defender Thiago Silva has been ruled out of the clash with a calf problem.
PSG has in-form Edinson Cavani who has scored in each of his last five games in Ligue 1. Edinson Cavani and Lucas Moura have a chance to lead their side to victory at a price of (2.10) and (3.25), but Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi are expected to stun the French side after normal regulation time at (2.00) and (2.00) after normal regulation time.
PSG:Â (all competitions): WDWWWW
Barcelona (all competitions): WDWWDW
