Paris Saint-Germain welcome Manchester United to the Parc des Princes for their Group H clash. The group is all but easy and includes the last season's semi-finalists Red Bull Leipzig and Turkish champions Istanbul Basaksehir. It is clear every point is important, but PSG are main favorites for the first place. Thomas Tuchel's side were successful in the competition last season, reaching the final. But final isn't good enough for the Arab owners. Nasser Al-Khelaifi is desperate to win the Champions League as he invested lot of money in new players. PSG are in excellent form in domestic Ligue 1, winning the last five matches. Even more, they scored 10 goals on the last two matches. The Parisians beat Angers with 6:1 before the international break and then won 4:0 at Nimes. The atmosphere in the squad is positive, while the players confidence is high. Tuchel has the key players Neymar and Mbappe ready for this encounter. Neymar was rested against Nimes during the weekend , but is expected to lead the line together with Mbappe. The former Monaco striker will try to to find the back of the net - should he score in this match, then he would surpass Lionel Messi as the youngest player to register 20 Champions League goals. Considering the fact he netted four goals and provided three assists in four Ligue 1 fixtures this season, I believe Mbappe will write the history on Tuesday night. However, coach Tuchel has lot of injury worries. Mauro Icardi, Juan Bernat and Thilo Kehrer are definitely sidelined through injury, while four players are rated as doubtful - Marquinhos, Marco Verratti, Julian Draxler and Danilo Pereira.
Manchester United, the three-time European champions, have missed the last season of this competition. They participated in UEFA Europe League and reached the semi-finals, where lost 2:1 to the eventual winners Sevilla. Nevertheless, the new season brings new hopes for Ole Gunar Solskjaer and his men. A good result in Paris will surely be a positive moment for everybody in the club. Winning in Paris is all but easy task, however it is not impossible. Manchester United already conquered Paris in March 2019, when Marcus Rashford scored 94th-minute penalty to secure a 3:1 win. It was a moment of glory for Manchester as they secured quarter-finals having been beaten "only" 2:0 at Old Trafford in the first leg. It was definitely the greatest night for the fans since the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson. However, this season's results are not at desired level. The Red Devils have two victories and two defeats after the opening four rounds in the Premier League. Solskjaer came under heavy pressure after the 6:1 home defeat at the hands of Tottenham. It was a humiliation, but United managed to respond by beating Newcastle with 4:1 on Saturday. Harry Maguire, Bruno Fernandes, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Marcus Rashford were the scorers at St James Park. The later was named 'Player of the Match' after registered three goal involvements - one goal and two assists. Rashford will probably start from the first minute, as well as Anthony Martial, who skip the weekend fixture due to suspension. Solskjaer should make a tough decision about the goalkeeping position as Dean Henderson publicly announced he isn't satisfy to be only a reserve. The Norwegian coach could give him a chance in the Champions League in order to keep him happy.
Paris Saint-Germain vs Manchester United Prediction:
I expect a tight match with lot of emotions. The former PSG star Edinson Cavani will return to the Parc des Princes to make his debut against the club in which he spent the last 7 years. The 33-year-old Uruguayan striker is PSG’s all-time record scorer with 200 goals, including 30 in the Champions League. In addition, Angel Di Maria and Ander Herrera, will also face their former teammates. Paris Saint-Germain are favorites, but I don't think Manchester will give up easily. The Red Devills have played six competitive matches in the new season, 4 in the Premier League and 2 in League Cup. Four of these six were played on road and United won all four. It seems they play much better away from home. This is exactly that kind of match, Solskjaer's men will have lot of space for counter-attacks. I think they could upset the hosts. In case PSG to win with one goal, Your stake will return.
