Man City v PSG Predictions

 

Manuel Pellegrini’s men have really given themselves a chance of getting through this tie after a very impressive 2-2 draw at the Parc-Des-Princes. They may have been in an even better position had defensive errors not cost them the goals they conceded, however all City fans would have been delighted if they were offered 2-2 before the match. They are in pole position now and know that PSG have to attack if they want to progress, meaning gaps will be available to exploit.

 

 

City struggle when playing against teams who sit deep in their half and soak up the pressure. Eventually they may break the opposition down as they did on the weekend against West Brom, however when playing against open opponents such as Bournemouth, they thrashed them. This PSG side are very tricky to break down when they sit deep and hit on the counter, as they’ve already shown last season against Chelsea. This time they cannot simply sit back, they have to be expansive too, which will favour the pace of City on the break.

 

PSG are ticking along on weekends as they’ve already won their league comfortably, they do have two cup finals to play before April is out, but this is the priority competition, and they’d trade both domestic cups to get to the final of the Champions League. They’ve shown in recent times that they can be got at defensively, an almost completely Brazilian defence can be exciting but you do always fancy them to make mistakes, David Luiz being the usual culprit.

 

My first Man City v PSG prediction for this match is Manchester City to win. I think this because PSG cannot allow City to take control of the game, meaning risks will have to be taken. City can adopt a more cautious approach and entice the PSG back line closer and closer to the half way line. This will give space to Navas, De Bruyne and Aguero to run into and create chances. Also, it’s rare that City are the underdogs at home, and I do believe that both teams are equally matched, so the home support could be the difference if they can create a good atmosphere.

 

The best odds for Man City to beat PSG are 9/5 with Betfred.

 

My second Man City v PSG prediction is Nicolas Otamendi to be shown a card. He can be reckless when going in for tackles and he tends to leave a foot in when attempting to win the ball, and because he’s up against some tricky and nimble players in the PSG midfield and attack, I can see him giving a number of free kicks away and accumulating them up to a yellow card.

 

The best odds for Otamendi to get a card are 19/10 with Bet Victor.

 

My final Man City vs PSG betting tip for Tuesday night’s Champions League quarter final second leg is for Kevin De Bruyne to score first. He scored first in last week’s first leg, and has been incredible since his return from injury, even coming off the bench to assist in Manchester City’s winner at the weekend. He takes free kicks and is the most likely of all of the City players to take a shot from the edge of the area, and I like his odds of 17/2 with 888Sport (he’s as short as 6/1 with other bookies).

 

If you open a new 888Sport account you will get treble odds for your first bet, for example bet 25.5/1 instead of 17/2 for Kevin De Bruyne to score first – that means £10 wins £265!
