Just three months ago, Paris Saint-Germain was in the final of the Champions League for the first time in the club’s history. Thomas Tuchel was the celebrated man and despite the defeat in the final, a certain “now more than ever” mood seemed to be taking hold at “Les Rouge et Bleu”. Three months later, however, the German coach is facing a game of fate. Without a win in Manchester, wintering in the premier class would be seriously endangered.
If United wins the home game and RB Leipzig gets at least one point in the parallel game in Istanbul, PSG could no longer move into the second round of the premier class on their own. It’s hard to imagine that Tuchel, whose contract is only valid until the end of the season, could then stay in the coaching office. The greater the pressure on the French at Old Trafford. After all: “Les Rouge et Bleu” won the only away game here so far on February 12, 2019, 2-0.
Nonetheless, we believe that the Solskjaer team, who could now book the round of 16 with a home three, can make a profit from the Parisiens crisis. In our opinion, the greatest value is with Manchester United against PSG in tip 1.
Manchester United – Statistics & current form
Manchester United have already suffered several setbacks this season. In the league, for example, there was an embarrassing 6-1 home defeat to the current English leaders Tottenham at the beginning of October. On November 1, another home game against Arsenal was lost.
The Red Devils are currently only eighth in the Premier League and would have missed the qualification for another international competition. Certainly, nobody in the camp of the English record champions can be satisfied with this intermediate result.
Last won four competitive games in a row
Most recently, however, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men recovered. United was able to win the last four competitive games, for which a 2-0 deficit against Southampton was reversed in the dress rehearsal on Sunday.
The Cavani winning goal in the second minute of stoppage time marked the fourth competitive game win in a row. It could depend on the 33-year-old again now. With Paris, his ex-club is finally making a guest appearance in Old Trafford, which he would now love to pour more goals.
Only one defeat from 14 games against clubs from Ligue 1
The record speaks for the English record champions, who of their 14 matches with representatives of Ligue 1 have only lost the home game against PSG in February 2019 (ten wins, three draws).
Also in light of the fact that the momentum is currently there and a home win would mean early qualification for the Round of 16 in the towel, we think it is best to play against PSG Tip 1 at Manchester United. At home, the Red Devils finally won the previous two group games with 9: 1 goal.
The probable lineup of Manchester United:
De Gea – Telles – Maguire – Lindelöf – Wan-Bissaka – Fred – van de Beek – Martial – Fernandes – Rashford – Cavani

PSG – Statistics & current form
Paris Saint-Germain still has the ultimate goal of winning the UEFA Champions League. A destination for which huge sums of money have been spent in the last decade to guide stars like Neymar, Mbappé and Co to the French capital.
A number of prominent coaches failed to form a functioning group out of the star ensemble. The first coach who, in addition to the already planned championship, was also successful internationally, is Thomas Tuchel.
Already two defeats from the first four group games
After the final against FC Bayern Munich, which was lost in August 2020, the success of the first final in history seems to have completely faded.
After two defeats in the first four group games, any result except the away win at Old Trafford could potentially mean that the Parisiens would have to rely on shooters next week, not to be in the Champions League preliminary round for the first time in eight appearances in a row to fail the group stage.
The dress rehearsal in Bordeaux was messed up again
The performance data are basically correct.
- “They know that I will always defend my team when I understand the reasons for their actions. But today I can’t understand it, and I don’t want to understand it either. We are not allowed to play like that. ” – Thomas Tuchel at ran.de
However, the past week showed that it is currently not running. The 2: 3 bankruptcy at AS Monaco was followed by a very narrow 1: 0 victory over Leipzig in the premier class, before the dress rehearsal was ruined again on Saturday. In Bordeaux, the Parisiens did not get beyond a 2-2 draw. Disappointed, Tuchel then distanced himself from his team. That also shows how much of a crisis there is at PSG at the moment.
The probable lineup of PSG:
Navas – Bakker – Diallo – Marquinhos – Florenzi – Paredes – Pereira – Herrera – Mbappé – Di María – Neymar
