Paris Saint-Germain FC vs. Atlético Madrid Prediction on November 6, 2024
Match info
Paris Saint-Germain, also known as PSG, and Atlético Madrid will meet at the former side’s ground, Parc des Princes, in what promises to be an exciting 2024–25 UEFA Champions League (UCL) encounter between the two prominent men’s football teams in Europe. The league phase’s matchday 4 is scheduled for this Wednesday, November 6, with kickoff at 9 p.m. local time. We anticipate that PSG’s strong home performance this season will resume against the Spaniards. With six victories and one tie thus far, they are still undefeated at Parc des Princes across all competitions. As for the UCL, this included a draw with PSV and a victory over Girona. Since losing to Arsenal, the “Parisians” (Les Parisiens) have also gone undefeated in their past five games overall. On the other hand, Diego Simeone’s team has been struggling away from home lately, winning only two of their past five games, including two losses. Atlético have also struggled with consistency in La Liga, drawing in half of their away games. PSG are big-time favorites against the visiting side: 1.78 on IZZI Casino; Atlético are 4.69.
Meeting statistics
The current form of Paris Saint-Germain FC Paris Saint-Germain are good when playing at home this season, as we already stressed. They have a solid start to the season, leading Ligue 1 by six points after 10 games, even though Kylian Mbappé left during the summer. They’ve only won one of their first three games in Europe, though, and are now sitting at four points in 19th place and must fight to advance straight to the knockout stages. However, they could move up the standings considerably if they defeat Atlético. PSG’s final four games would be under more strain if they did anything less. In contrast to Atlético, PSG have scored in every game this season but one. Bradley Barcola has scored eight goals, which is outstanding. He’s the primary danger for his team and will not hesitate to harm the other defenses. The Frenchman has yet to score his first goal of the season in Europe. Gonçalo Ramos is anticipated to stay out until later this month, while Lucas Hernandez and Presnel Kimpembe are long-term absences. Otherwise, Luis Enrique ought to have a fully healthy roster to pick from. The current form of Atlético Madrid Since the visitors have won one and lost two games in Europe, Atlético’s situation is similar to PSG’s. They are outside the playoff spots in 27th place. Three points on Wednesday, however, would turn their luck and put them back in the running. “Rojiblancos” (the Red-Whites) haven’t won two straight league games since mid-September. Atlético are weak at the back, which is unusual for Simeone’s squad. They’ve only preserved one clean sheet in seven games, except for a Copa del Rey triumph against lower league opponents in the first round. In the Champions League, only five other teams have given up more goals than they have. The Spaniards have struggled to score goals, particularly in this competition. In just three games, they’ve only managed to score three. With a score of 18, the lowest among the top four, they haven’t performed much better in the domestic league. The visitors’ biggest threats will probably be Antoine Griezmann and summer acquisition Julián Alvarez, who both top the league with four goals in all competitions. This game came too soon for him, so Marcos Llorente is anticipated to make his injury comeback later this month. César Azpilicueta is speeding up his recovery as well. After suffering a brain injury, Robin Le Normand is getting closer to making a comeback, but the team will exercise caution when he does; this won’t happen this Wednesday, that’s for sure. Head-to-head These two will be playing each other in the Champions League for the first time. In 2018, they had faced off in a friendly before the season; PSG won 3-2. There was another friendly, back in 2009 in the Emirates Cup: 1-1. PSG have played 41 games against Spanish opponents, most often against Real Madrid and Barcelona. Eighteen of these games have been won by them. In just 14 meetings with French opponents, Atlético have won seven of them.
