PSG Basel betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be the existence of several goals. We believe that PSG will dominate much of the match and enjoy the best chances, however, quick transitions from Basel will create serious difficulties for the team. On the other hand, both teams have some quality difference between the offensive and the defensive sector, being likely to score and suffer for a few occasions. Having said that it’s foreseeable that the teams will play very offensively in order to gain points in this competition, making a bet in favor of the goals to be full of value.

Preview
PSG and Basel meet at Parc des Princes, in a match for this stage of the UEFA Champions League (Group Stage). These two teams have never met before, so this will be the first head‑to‑head between them. Basel registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis PSG

The home team comes to his 3rd round of Group A in the 2nd position, with 4 points won, after 1 win and 1 draw. In their debut in this group stage they tied at home against Arsenal by (1‑1). In the second round, they won in an away match against Ludogorets by (1‑3). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 11 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses in away matches; against 11 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss at their stadium. In their last match, for the Ligue 1, they got an away win against Nancy by (1‑2). In the last 10 home matches PSG has won 8 and tied 2. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 29 of the last 33 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals and 22 out of 33 have ended with Over 2,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 12 of the last 15 matches, they have reached half‑time in front in 8 of those 12 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 10 of them.

PSG comes for this match after a win against Nancy, by 1-2, thus registering the third consecutive victory in official matches, one for the Champions League. In this home match the Unai Emery coach must maintain the usual 4-3-3, with Cavani being the forward player of the team: the Uruguayan is the top scorer with 9 goals scored. It’s important to point out that the French have great quality in the offensive dead balls, finishing and counterattack: Lucas is one of the most dangerous player in attack. For this match the coach won’t count on Aurier, Thiago Silva, Di María, Kurzawa, Pastore and Maxwell, injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Alphonse Aréola, Serge Aurier, Layvin Kurzawa, Marquinhos, Thiago Silva, Marco Verratti, Blaise Matuidi, Adrien Rabiot, Lucas Moura, Ángel Di María, Edinson Cavani.
Coach: C. Galtier.

Analysis Basel

The away team comes to his 3rd round of Group A in the 4th position, with 1 point won, after 1 draw and 1 loss. In their debut in this group stage they tied at home against Ludogorets by (1‑1). In the second round, they lost in an away match against Arsenal by (2‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses in away matches, with 33 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 7 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 31 goals scored and 17 conceded. In their last match, for the Super League, they got a home win against Luzern by (3‑0). In the last 10 away matches Basel has won 7, tied 1 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In their away mathes there is a tendency for goals, since 19 of the last 29 matches have ended with Over 2,5 goals. In 10 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times but have turned the score around in 2.

Basel comes for this match after a victory against Luzern by 3-0, returning to winning ways after two defeats: the goals were scored by Elyounoussi, Lang and Doumbia. In this match the coach Urs Fischer must play in 4-2-3-1 favoring defensive organization and long balls to the attack: Matías Delgado will be the conductor of the team, being responsible for organizing and creating the offending process. However, it’s important to note that Doumbia is the top scorer of the team with 7 goals signed. Apparently the coach won’t count on Adama Traoré, Sporar and Akanji, all recovering from injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Tomáš Vaclík, Michael Lang, Adama Traoré, Marek Suchý, Éder Balanta, Taulant Xhaka, Birkir Bjarnason, Serey Dié, Matías Delgado, Renato Steffen, Seydou Doumbia.
Coach: A. Frei.
