UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[X-ray]

Both teams are on a mission to win this match, especially since Arsenal was only able to draw 0-0 on the first Matchday against Atalanta. On the other hand, PSG won 1-0 over Girona through an own goal from Paulo Gazzaniga, although they achieved different results, but they were both unable to score in the opening match. Arsenal will try to show their strength at the Emirates stadium even though their opponents are unbeaten in Ligue 1, this victory is very important for them to improve their position in the standings.
Obviously, Arsenal will be the favorite team because of the factor of playing in front of their supporters and their strength has also been tested when facing strong teams in the EPL.

The meeting between Arsenal and PSG in the Champions League in the upcoming match could be a fairly fierce match because both teams will try to win even though I personally also favor Arsenal as the team that will be able to win in the match. But Arsenal must play better and not make more mistakes that result in more cards, because PSG must also be considered a very dangerous team this season, especially if this is a match in the Champions League where generally all teams will bring out their best abilities.

I don't know if I'm comfortable predicting the Arsenal-PSG match. PSG will wear Arsenal out in a somewhat dangerous match this season. Arsenal will play without mistakes and win this match, but as I said I'm not sure what will happen. PSG started to play good teamwork with their new transfers after Mbappe left.

They may be successful in stopping Arsenal's fast play. Since it's a Champions League match, PSG players will want to prove themselves. It seems to me that this match will end in a draw, this is definitely not a recommendation.

Arsenal vs PSG is a hard game to predict. The odds above favored Arsenal to win the game. But they have somewhat had a terrible performance in European competition. I remember when they lost to Sporting CP in the 22/23 Europa League. A year later, Bayern Munich also beat them.

I'd rather trust PSG for the upcoming game instead of them, though the chance of losing is bigger. They are very inconsistent in European competition. The most likely outcome is they are gonna take points from PSG with a narrow score or they lose it.

We are only one day away from Week 2 games to be underway. Here are the games on Tuesday:



And this is my parlay for this day.  



I know there are really risky choices there. Especially the double chance on PSG.    But I just feel like they won't lose. I like their football more than the times they had Mbappe. Arsenal play at Emirates here maybe but their job is still very difficult.

I think Leverkusen and Dortmund both won't lose any points. Leverkusen are already doing amazing while Milan are not much balanced. Dortmund should also be able to beat Celtic home by a decent score.

Both teams actually have almost equal strength, that's what makes the match difficult to predict, only Arsenal is slightly more favored because they are playing in front of their own supporters. Confidence in Arsenal increased after they managed to hold Manchester City to a draw in the most draining match. In addition, PSG did manage to beat Girona in the first match, but that was more of a luck factor. It is possible that the match will end in a draw, although we realize that both teams are very ambitious to secure full points, regardless of their previous reputation. Based on the odds displayed, Arsenal is clearly more favored, but we also cannot ignore the experience that Luis Enrique has.

In many aspects, for now, Arsenal deserve to be the favorites.
I think it's not just about their ability to put up a tough fight against a team like Manchester City, but it must be admitted that Arsenal have indeed developed into a better team under Arteta. The only similarity between the two is that they don't have a sharp striker, but collectively, all the players in the squads of both teams have the ability to score goals with various variations.

I don't really place Arsenal as favorites in that match, but I agree that Arsenal has a good chance of winning in their home match. Arsenal must be able to take advantage of home advantage to win, but PSG is not an easy team to beat. There are many good players in Luis Enrique's squad who can also score goals and win matches, so both teams' chances of winning still have to be considered.

However the match ends, both of them still have a long journey (6 matches remaining) to reach the last 16.

That's right, they need to win it to increase their chances of qualifying for the last 16 automatically.

Clearly, this fixture looks very tough and how we relate to it goes from our own very perspective on how we judge the performance of this clubs. No doubt both teams are up there in their respective levels but talking about competency to manage this sort of competition, we all are aware that Arsenal faced one tough opponent in the beginning of their Champions League fixture (Atalanta) now they are to face another big team like PSG. Based on the fact that they drew previously i personally would not give the benefit of doubt for them failing to beat PSG while in their home, my prediction slightly not going for another draw once again.

[Minecache]

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) indeed spent hefty amounts over the years to have more star players besides Mbappe. The departure of Mbappe to Real Madrid undeniably is a significant loss to the club. However, PSG still maintains a wealth of talent, allowing them to continue with strong performances.

You've accurately highlighted that, in the Champions League, performing well doesn't equate to securing the title. It requires strategy, maximizing player abilities, teamwork, and a fair bit of luck. The coach's role is crucial here, as how effectively he harnesses the potential of all players will determine the team's success. Winning matches isn't the same as winning a prestigious title like the Champions League, and PSG must strive to bridge that gap.

There is the luck factor at drawing other teams, but there is luck in games too. Remember the game PSG had against Dortmund last year? I mean PSG shot time and time and time again, went out by an inch, woodwork, hit the players, like so many almost goals happened in that game and it was definitely pure luck that PSG couldn't win that game, it was so easy for PSG to win normally, they were the better team without a doubt but PSG became very unlucky that day and missed so many chances that they do not normally miss. They are trying the same thing again, no matter how great one player is, you can't just have one player and trust that player will make you win everything.

I understand that prime Messi and prime Ronaldo was like that, they were so good that they would carry teams to UCL finals all by themselves, but NOBODY in history of football is like them, even the current stars can't do that, you need a whole team, so PSG could still be doing fine, they just need to keep on grinding. They are lacking Mbappe compared to last season, but they got some great talents and been winning so far, I think they will have what it takes this year, it's possible to win, and that would be a great story too, winning without Mbappe.

I actually do not think that PSG will be able to win the Champions League competition. That’s because they have no actually serious competition in the French league. when they are not facing any kind of actual competition, any kind of big opponents like Real Madrid or Manchester City in the league, they are obviously not going to be ready to face them in the Champions League. Not having a good squad was never a problem for PSG. They have had squads which were one of the best in the whole world before. But they were unable to win the Champions League with that. So I don’t think it is actually wise to expect them to win the Champions League now when they don’t have any of those players. The best they can do is win the Ligue 1. Nothing more than that. ChampionsLeak is still far away away from them.

Indeed, many doubt that PSG can win the UCL trophy. They previously had big ambitions for UCL with their star players. But now, maybe they should put that ambition aside and just try to give their best. Some observers even see that PSG will have difficulty qualifying for the next round. That's because they see the opponents that PSG must face in this first round. Girona has been handled well by PSG. But other strong teams will reduce the chances of PSG qualifying. But hopefully, they don't have bad luck.

[el kaka22]

I do not think that PSG vs Arsenal is that big, I mean bigger than most games this round that is for sure, but it's too early of the round, and we have 8 games totally this time in UCL so it will be six more games after this, so it doesn't matter if one of them wins or they draw, it will not be great and we are not going to see anything changing much, if this was a knock out stage then it would be fun but right now it is not and we are not seeing it change at all.

Plus, there are only very few teams that these bigger clubs play against big clubs, most of the games they play against are against weaker teams, so they are all expected to be doing fine, either top eight or close, so it shouldn't really be a problem to even lose.

I think it somehow depends on the result. Both teams are not the top favorites in the UCL, but if one team crushes the other with like a three goal difference, I think that would be quite insightful. If it is going to be a result like 1-3 or 1-4 for PSG, then it would have turned into a big game in my opinion. But yes I agree with you that it is not like City vs Real Madrid. But it still a very exciting game I think. As far as I know both teams are missing key players, but it is not that bad. It is not easy to see as of now where the UCL journey is heading for PSG. You can't tell from the results in Ligue 1.

it's very hard to pick because both teams did well in their respective leagues but my vote is in favor of the Gunners and I would like them to stand tall in this match against PSG.

Anything is always possible because PSG and all the other teams still have a lot of games to play. You can still consider several scenarios on how PSG could make it to the last 16, so I wouldn't rule out any chance it has. PSG could lose to Arsenal considering Arsenal is playing at home, but PSG can win the other match and position themselves as one of the ones who will qualify.

Even though PSG will have to fight, I think they still have a chance. Don't underestimate PSG, who have improved so far in the hands of Luis Enrique, but making them favorites in a big match like the match against Arsenal is the most doubtful thing. Arsenal tend to be favourites, but they could still lose.

This is a little tricky because after all, the conditions of the two clubs actually look the same in terms of the quality of players and in terms of performance at the beginning of this season although it cannot be denied that PSG in Ligue 1 still looks luxurious but we know Arsenal's struggle in the EPL where this is a very difficult competition so I think we can consider that for now they are comparable.

Arsenal are definitely favorites in this match because of the advantage of playing home but when the schedule is indeed very busy and the break is only a little break then there could be some unexpected things for now where there will definitely be some problems that occur because of fitness considering the physical players are too shortened in a busy match. But there's no denying that I'm expecting one of them to win this match even though I don't want to bet on a risky match like this even though the odds are very decent but it would be very comfortable to watch a big match like this without any betting because I don't want to risk too much.

It is quite difficult to see which team will be more favored in the Arsenal vs PSG match tomorrow. Because the quality of the game of these two teams cannot be doubted. Both are strong teams in their respective leagues. But we have to consider that the home team could have an advantage. And in this match Arsenal will be the host because the match will be held at the Emirates stadium.

So I might choose to favor Arsenal. Because Arsenal, which looks on par with Man City, really convinces me that they will achieve good results in the UCL this time.

This match fixture is gonna be one of the most interesting UCL game of the week to watch considering the positional strength of the respective elite team's in their various league. The odds seem to be in favour of Arsenal for obvious reasons: they're the  home team, and consequently for PSG Dembele could be absent in this game too due to Luis Enrique decision of instilling some discipline on the right winger as a result of his misbehavior both on and off the pitch in their recent games which the coach isn't happy with. I suspect that this details must have triggered the high odds on PSG in favour of the gunners. More details in the link: https://open.substack.com/pub/psgtalk/p/reaction-ousmane-dembele-left-out?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=4hq341

I'd rather trust PSG for the upcoming game instead of them, though the chance of losing is bigger. They are very inconsistent in European competition. The most likely outcome is they are gonna take points from PSG with a narrow score or they lose it.

Despite the departure of Kylian Mbappe PSG has been well composed and making tremendous performance in all their games this season despite having some of their player on injury they barely struggle to score goals which is something to watch out for as they will be meeting Arsenal at the Emirates. Arsenal on one hand have been able to showcase a strong defending prowess in almost all their games of the season and haven't lost a single game. It's a tough game actually and at the moment very difficult to predict who's going to win notwithstanding what or who the bookmakers odds may favour.

When I see both teams performance and the injuries and absent in each team, I would say they are close to each others with a slight advantage for Arsenal.
Meanwhile, when I see the current odds in bookies, I find Arsenal way favourite with @1.7 - 1.8 for gunners vs @4-5 for PSG!
Dembele will be absent in that game because he upset his coach in a previous match..

Arsenal are very ambitious to achieve their first win, after previously being held to a draw by Atalanta. It is natural that Arsenal are more favored, because they are playing at home and are in good form. Of course, not intending to underestimate PSG, because even though they have now been left by Mbappe, the Ligue 1 representatives are still a team to be reckoned with. Reportedly, Dembele relationship with Luis Enrique is not harmonious, and he is likely not included when facing Arsenal, if that happens Arteta squad will benefit. The match looks like it will be fierce with both teams playing openly and attacking each other, it will provide a very entertaining spectacle. Although this match does not determine their qualification to the last 16, in my opinion this match is one of the interesting ones for week 2.

It's still a big game.
It doesn't matter what stage of the competition the game is being played, when two big teams are meeting it's a big game.
The game is going to be an interesting one because these are two teams that can be very attacking when they want to be. Arsenal has a good defence but PSG always finds a way to score.

PSG is in a top form now and I believe they will play very well. Arsenal too are in a good form so neither team would want to lose. But taking the fact that Arsenal will be playing at home into consideration, I think Arsenal might have the upper hand.

I think that Arsenal of the last three years would have won Ligue 1 without any problems (even with PSG playing there) and PSG would hardly have entered the top 4 of the Premier League with any of their star squads. This is subjective of course, but judging by the bookmakers' odds, they don't believe in the French champion. It's a pity that this is a group stage game, I would like to see the result when the teams play at full strength.

Why do premier league fans believe football outside of England is very easy? How do you believe PSG would not make too 4 in the EPL? The league is not as difficult as you guys make it out to seem. Arsenal had to rely on penalties to knocked out Porto last season. There's no point overrating those teams.

[Stepstowealth]

Dembele will be absent in that game because he upset his coach in a previous match..

Dembele's absence if it is true and not just a tactics will give Arsenal more advantage to win that game which they have to take. Arsenal are doing better already without Odegaard, they have adjusted and that should not a problem for the team anymore. Any result other than a win from that game will be considered a disappointing result for Mikel Arteta's team.
 Barcelona also have a big job to do tomorrow as well. They have to be very good and try not to get a red card.

[Felicity_Tide]

Dembele will be absent in that game because he upset his coach in a previous match..

In as much as every manager deserves some respect from the players, but I hope Enrique won't be disappointed in himself for not taking dembele along if he happens to lose to arsenal. The UEFA champions league comes with a lot of expectation. I actually had the thought of predicting the game in a draw, but it seems this odd is showing me certain things I haven't considered. Arsenal's have been so relentless to lose a game this season. They rather settle the game in a draw or win, than to lose, which shows the level of mentality they are operating with under Arteta.

I am not sure if the PSG attack will be able to penetrate the arsenal's defense in the game, and I also saw some pictures of two players that have returned from Injury, and were fully part of the UCl training some hours ago. I am not too sure of how PSG have been playing sincere the departure of mbappe, so I can't really tell if they will ever give the game a tough fight tomorrow. Arsenal might just be getting their first 3 points in the game tomorrow.

Never thought I'd one day see the champions league games be this much with almost all the big teams playing in one day, is like watching the international football game like the World Cup. To me this style is not cool because they are giving everything at once and they're also killing the expectation of the game, only wish they could bring back the old pattern.

I guess I have to use multiple screen or maybe split screen haha ....I'm actually watching my favourite  team, though I would love to watch others too but it seems some are bas3d on same time frames, I could just follow up with the score sheet so as not to miss the moment and maybe focus on a single match, I would have said maybe switch if not worth watching but every Champions league game is always worth watching.  I just hope there won't be any dissapointment  and I hope for goals apart from Arsenal and PSG I know it might be tough a little,  might even end draw. The new pattern is actually fine too I don't really see anything wrong with it too much , it's not like you can Watch multiple games at the same time for the old pattern too it's just that it's more now and if you can then you should probably use the same logic for this too.
