PSG vs Tottenham Hotspur

PSG continue their UEFA Champions League title defence as they host Tottenham Hotspur on matchday five of the league phase.

The Parisians are aiming to bounce back from the disappointment last time out and are generally solid on home soil. They should get the better of Spurs, who have been out of sorts lately.

PSG News

PSG suffered a 2-1 home defeat to Bayern Munich in their previous fixture, with Joao Neves getting their only goal. That was the first league phase loss for Luis Enrique's team, who had won their previous three matches.

The Parisians will be keen to make a swift return to winning ways, and the good news is that they are coming off two straight victories, winning the first half in both fixtures. They are also unbeaten in seven of their last eight home matches, claiming a 3-0 win over Le Havre last weekend.

PSG are known for their attacking quality and have scored in their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, they are without a clean sheet in their last three Champions League fixtures, all of which have produced over 2.5 goals.

Tottenham Hotspur News

Tottenham Hotspur can be pleased with their league phase campaign so far, having remained unbeaten after four matches. They have picked up two wins and as many draws, and claimed a 4-0 home victory over FC Copenhagen in their previous fixture.

However, that victory was a rare moment to cheer for Tottenham, who are winless in four of their last five matches across all competitions. They have also lost their last two away matches and were beaten 4-1 at Arsenal in a Premier League clash last weekend.

That result highlights Tottenham’s defensive problems, having failed to keep a clean sheet in seven of their last 10 matches. However, they have also scored in seven of those fixtures, all of which have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

PSG are unbeaten in the two previous matches against Tottenham Hotspur. The Parisians beat the visitors on penalties to win the UEFA Super Cup in August after battling to a 2-2 draw.

Verdict

PSG v Tottenham

There is plenty of attacking quality on display here, and with neither defence looking convincing at the moment, both teams are likely to score here. PSG have earned a win and over 2.5 goals in their last two matches, and a similar outcome is expected.

PSG have a knack for fast starts and, having led at the break in their last two matches, a similar pattern could be considered.
