RB Leipzig vs PSG Free Betting Tips – Champions League
Leipzig has been asserting itself in the landscape of European football for a few years. Last season, RasenBall even climbed to the semi-final of the Champions League, beaten by … PSG. Once again qualified for the C1 this season, the partners of the French international Dayot Upamecano logically won against the weakest team in the group, Basaksehir, during the first day (2-0). On the other hand, they fell heavily in Manchester United’s lair last week (5-0), although the score appears severe given the appearance of the match. 3rd in the Bundesliga, Leipzig made a very honourable start to the season. Unbeaten in the first 5 days (4 wins and 1 draw), Jurgen Nagelsmann’s men conceded their first hitch last weekend, in Monchengladbach (1-0).
Without competition on the national scene, PSG is now focused on the supreme objective, finally winning the Champions League. Marquinhos’ partners have never been so close last year but they ultimately lost in the final to Bayern Munich. Always so motivated this year, they started their European campaign very badly by being surprised, at home, by Manchester United (1-2). On the second day, the capital club immediately reacted with this victory on the lawn of Basaksehir (0-2). Paris is still struggling to convince and is preparing to engage in a real three-way battle (with Man U and Leipzig) for qualification in the round of 16. On the national scene, Paris is already at the head of Ligue 1 with a record of 7 wins and 2 defeats. Last weekend, Thomas Tuchel’s men easily won in Nantes (0-3), thus aligning the 7th success in a row in the league.

Leipzig is further weakened by the absence of the important Mukiele, Klostermann and Laimer and the young striker Hartmann. After the heavy defeat at Manchester last week, the coach could be tempted to revert to a 3-defender system.
For this new Champions League meeting, PSG will be deprived of star Neymar, potential holders Bernat, Paredes, Verratti and Icardi and the usual replacements Draxler, Jese and Kehrer. Recruited this summer, the young Italian striker Moïse Kean displays good dispositions. He should again be associated with Mbappé and Di Maria.
