PSG vs Manchester City Predictions

• Over 2.5 goals has landed in six of PSG’s last eight games.
• Three or more goals have been scored in each of Manchester City’s last four.
• Both these sides have scored at least twice in each of their last three games.

Both sides on the brink of Champions League failure

Two of the ante-post favourites for the Champions League crown clash in Paris on Wednesday and both are in desperate need of three points after a dismal campaign so far.

PSG and Manchester City are separated by just a single point in the new league phase of the Champions League, with Pep Guardiola’s side sitting 22nd and Les Parisiens 25th in the standings.

Two games remain in this stage, and both teams need to win both remaining games to stand any chance of automatic qualification to the last 16.

Parisiens and Citizens find form

While PSG and Manchester City have endured a difficult time in this competition so far, both head into this tie in good form.

PSG are nine points clear at the top of Ligue 1 after beating Lens 2-1 at the weekend, while Manchester City’s 6-0 thrashing of Ipswich made it four wins from their last five, with the fourth-placed side seemingly recovered from their unprecedentedly poor run of form through November and December.

Foden to contribute to goal-fest in Paris

The Citizens have scored 22 goals across these five matches and, with PSG also in good scoring form, neutrals can expect an entertaining affair at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday.

Over 2.5 goals has landed in six of PSG’s last eight matches and in each of Manchester City’s last four fixtures, as well as four of their last five Champions League games. Backing three or more goals looks the way to go on Wednesday.

Both teams may need a victory, but I think a stalemate could be on the cards in the French capital. Manchester City drew 2-2 away to Brentford last week and have scored twice or more in five successive games, while PSG have scored twice or more in each of their last three but are without a clean sheet in this period, so a 2-2 correct score prediction appeals.

Anytime goalscorer punters may consider Phil Foden, who scored twice and assisted another in the Citizen’s thrashing of Ipswich on Sunday. The 24-year-old has had a slow season by his standards, but his brace on Sunday made it five goals in his last three starts, and he can strike again on Wednesday.
