The action in the Champions League resumes this week with a blockbuster clash between Man City and PSG at the Parc des Princes.
It is a must-win encounter for both sides in the context of their European campaign, as a defeat for either could see them fighting a losing battle to finish in the top eight spots.
Below, you can find the latest odds for the heavyweight fixture in the Champions League, as well as our picks for the matchup.
PSG vs Man City Odds
The BetXchange odds indicate how close this clash could be in the Champions League on Wednesday. PSG are currently priced up at 31/20 to claim an important win, while the City win is available at 17/10.
A draw is hard to overlook at 14/5. Both teams to score will be a popular selection among many at 13/25, while both teams not to score is a 31/20 chance. Over 2.5 goals in the showdown is available at 9/20, while the under price is set at 39/20.
Head to Head Meetings
The head-to-head record doesn’t make for good reading for PSG this week, as the Parisians have recorded just a single win in their last seven encounters against Man City.
Over that period, City have recorded four wins, with two matches ending in draws. However, confidence will be gained from the fact that PSG recorded a 2-0 win in their last home match against City in September 2021.
PSG Update
PSG’s excellent start to the Ligue 1 season has seen them open up an advantage over the field in recent weeks. The Parisians continued their unbeaten run with a fine 2-1 victory on the road against Lens on Saturday.
Despite likely being without Marquinhos on Wednesday, PSG could hand a first start to new signing Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who signed from Napoli over the weekend.
It is an important showdown for the Parisians, as they sit outside of the playoff spots at this stage after winning just two of their six matches in the Champions League this season. A draw also isn’t likely to be the worst result, as PSG close off their campaign next week against Stuttgart.
Man City Update
Despite a testing season, Man City remain in contention for two major honours this season. Pep Guardiola’s side still rank among the leaders in the betting for Champions League glory, but a win will be required to strengthen their hold on a playoff spot.
City come into this round sitting 22nd in the standings after failing to win in their last three, and losing two matches over that period. A defeat in Paris could see them drop out of the top 24 in the standings.
However, there is still a wide feeling that they will stumble into the playoff places with the English champions rounding off their European league phase at home against Club Brugge next Wednesday. Confidence will certainly be gained from their recent 6-0 win on the road against Ipswich.
PSG vs Man City Prediction
City have lost their last two on the road, but they haven’t suffered three successive defeats in away European matches since December 2012.
At the prices available, it is worth taking their recent win over Ipswich at face value, as the English champions could be the value play at the prices available.
