PSG faces this FC Barcelona this Wednesday at 9:00 p.m. Wednesday on behalf of the second day of the Championship of the Champions League. A match that may happen on the Montjuïc Olympic stadium. We’ll dissect this key match with our professional.
A shock weakened by the absent
Conferences between FC Barcelona and PSG are actually European matches anticipated by all. They remind Parisians unimaginable moments of ache (La Rontada of 2017) and happiness (qualification within the semi-finals of LDC in Montjuic after the 4-1 victory). This Wednesday, the match might be noticed by everybody, however with a lesser rigidity because the assembly takes place as a part of the League part of the Champions League. A match the place defeat will essentially make a process, however won’t endanger any of the 2 groups.
The Barcelonans gained 2-1 on the Newcastle discipline on the primary day of the League and the Parisians carried out a present of pressure in opposition to Atalanta (4-0). These two groups subsequently compete in a second when the dynamics are constructive, within the Champions League and within the Championship. Barça chained a 4th consecutive victory this weekend in Liga with its 2-1 victory in opposition to Actual Sociedad. PSG has for its half returned to victory in opposition to Auxerre (2-0) in a managed match.
Prognosis Barcelona – PSG: the ranking of 1.9 for this shock from the Champions League
The 2 groups subsequently current themselves within the standing of chief of their respective championships, however with many absent. The Barcelonans should do with out Marc-André Ter Stegen, Gavi, Fermin Lopez, Joan Garcia and Raphinha whereas Luis Enrique will nonetheless see PSG with out his 2025 Golden Ball Ousmane Dembélé, his captain Marquinhos in addition to Désiré Doué. The presence of Vitinha, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Joao Neves and Fabian Ruiz additionally stay below query. A really unhealthy information after we see that it’s all the Parisian midfielder who can be renewed for the event. These absences subsequently stop a complete confrontation between the reigning European champion and one of many 4 greatest groups previously season.
2 groups in the identical profile
This Barça-PSG may also permit two groups to be discovered highlighting the identical sport traits, specifically the possession of the ball, the excessive urgent for fast restoration and a transition sport that may damage. The match within the match will subsequently oppose Hansi Flick and Luis Enrique, followers of the attractive sport. The Spanish coach could have a twinge within the coronary heart when he returned to the town the place he gained every part as a participant and coach. However his attachment to PSG is indeniable, and the victory within the quarterfinals of LDC 2024 confirmed that Lucho doesn’t really feel a sense in opposition to his membership of coronary heart.
Luis Enrique can anticipate a Barcelona group in entry strain mode, as revealed by Catalan Sport. The presence of Ferran Torres as a holder would subsequently be most popular to that of Robert Lewandowski.
On the PSG aspect, the query of the third attacker arises. Within the absence of Désiré Doué and Ousmane Dembélé, Gonçalo Ramos is the pure substitute. However his final performances didn’t reassure. Little comfy within the Luis Enrique system, the Portuguese solely scored one purpose because the begin of the season, and it was in opposition to Atalanta, a match the place he entered through the sport. The presence of Senny Mayulu in opposition to Barcelona may subsequently perceive one another. The Spanish coach has already skilled it this season, and the younger Titi is best on this system by his dropouts.
