Athletic Bilbao vs PSG. Champions League Main Stage Match Prediction
Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Athletic Bilbao vs PSG
Athletic BilbaoThe Spanish club has just four points after five Champions League matches, and heading into the new round, it's not among the top 24 teams in the standings and is outside the playoff zone. Athletic has only won one game in the main European competition, a home win against lowly Qarabag. If the team hopes to continue playing in the Champions League next spring, it must collect as many points as possible in its remaining matches to improve its standing. Athletic faces a very tough home match against the reigning champions, in which the hosts will need the support of their home fans and will need to perform at their best.
PSG
The Parisians are second in the current Champions League standings, with 12 points after five rounds. The reigning champions of the premier European competition have lost only one match, a home defeat to Bayern, but that defeat is unlikely to prevent Luis Enrique's men from finishing in the coveted top eight, which would qualify them directly for the round of 16. In the remaining rounds, PSG will try to avoid any unnecessary setbacks, and their top scorer in the current Champions League, Vitinha, who has scored four goals and provided one assist, should help them achieve this.
