PSG vs PSV Prediction and Betting Tips | October 22nd 2024

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will invite PSV to the Parc des Princes in the league phase of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday. The hosts have one win in two league games while Boeren have endured a winless start to their campaign, with a loss and a draw.

Les Parisiens returned to winning ways after two games on Saturday as they resumed their Ligue 1 campaign after the international break with a 4-2 win over Strasbourg. Senny Mayulu scored in the first half while Marco Asensio, Bradley Barcola, and Lee Kang-in added goals in the second half.

The visitors played Alkmaar in the Eredivisie on Saturday, recording a 2-1 away win thanks to first-half goals from Luuk de Jong and Noa Lang. They maintained their 100% record in the league following that win.

The hosts began their Champions League campaign with a 1-0 home win over Girona but suffered a 2-0 loss to Arsenal earlier this month. Boeren suffered a 3-1 away loss to Juventus in their campaign opener and held Sporting to a 1-1 home draw last time around.

PSG vs PSV Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

The two teams will meet for the first time in a competitive match. Les Parisiens have met Dutch teams thrice in UEFA competitions while the visitors have squared off against French teams 30 times thus far.
The hosts are unbeaten in three meetings against Dutch teams, recording two wins.
Boeren have a decent record against French teams, with nine wins and losses apiece and 12 games ending in draws.
PSG have a 100% home record across all competitions this season, scoring 17 goals in five games.
PSV have won just one of their last 18 away games in the Champions League while suffering 12 losses.
The hosts have failed to score in three of their last four games in the Champions League.

PSG vs PSV Prediction

Les Parisiens scored at least four goals in a match for the third time this season in their win over Strasbourg last week and will look to continue their goalscoring form here. They have a 100% home record against Dutch teams in UEFA competitions, scoring seven goals in two games.

Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, and Ousmane Dembélé were unused substitutes against Strasbourg and Luis Enrique is likely to include them in the starting XI here. Randal Kolo Muani was injured in training before the Ligue 1 meeting against Strasbourg and faces a late fitness test.

Boeren extended their unbeaten streak across all competitions to five games on Saturday, recording their ninth win of the season. They have won just one of their seven away meetings against French teams in the Champions League, which is a cause for concern.

Peter Bosz will be without the services of Jerdy Schouten for this match after the midfielder was subbed off with a thigh injury on Saturday. Richard Ledezma is likely to fill in for Schouten in this match.

Both teams head into the game in good form and Les Parisiens have a 100% home record this season. With that in mind and considering the visitors' struggles in away games in the Champions League, PSG should be able to record a narrow win.
