Arsenal vs PSG Betting Preview
Arsenal have had the benefit of some extra time off after their weekend fixture was moved to midweek, but they were unable to beat Crystal Palace (2-2) in a quite disappointing performance. They remain 2nd in the Premier League standings, five points above third-placed Newcastle with four games left. As to the UCL, Mikel Arteta's men knocked out trophy holders Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, winning 3-0 on a memorable night at Emirates and 2-1 in the second leg at the Bernabeu. The Gunners are are unbeaten in their last eight matches in the Champions League, winning seven and drawing just once.
PSG have already won Ligue 1 but they suffered their first league defeat over the weekend as Les Parisien were beaten 3-1 at home by Nice. In Champions League, they had a poor start but qualified for the knockout stage by winning their final three league phase games, including a 4-2 victory over Man City. Luis Enrique's men have beaten Brest in the play-offs (10-0 on aggregate), Liverpool and Aston Villa in the last two knockout rounds. Interestingly, they have scored first in the last five away games in this competition.
These two sides have already faced each other this season in Europe, with Arsenal winning 2-0 (as we predicted!) at the Emirates in the league phase courtesy of goals scored Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka. Overall, the North Londoners are unbeaten across their previous five meetings with PSG.
Best Odds
Online bookies are showing favouritism to the Gunners who are currently 59/50 (2.18) . The visiting PSG side are best priced at 13/5 (3.60) to pick up a pivotal away victory, while a draw pays 5/2 (3.54 on non-UK bookmakers).
Probable Line-Ups
Arsenal (4-3-3): Raya; Timber, Saliba, Kiwior, Lewis-Skelly; Odegaard, Rice, Merino; Saka, Trossard, Martinelli
Gabriel Magalhaes, Gabriel Jesus, Kai Havertz, and Takehiro Tomiyasu are sidelined while Thomas Partey is suspended. This means that Declan Rice could be required to play at the base of midfield, instead of his usual No8 role. The likes of Riccardo Calafiori, Ben White and Mikel Merino are not 100% fit but they will be included in the squad. Leandro Trossard is expected to play as false nine, with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli flanking. At the back, Jakub Kiwior will partner William Saliba at the heart of the back, with Myles Lewis-Skelly and Jurrien Timber as full backs.
PSG (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Ruiz, Vitinha, Neves; Barcola, Dembele, Kvaratskhelia
Luis Enrique boasts a clean bill of health to contend with. The Spanish manager will confirm most of the players that started against Nice, although Bradley Barcola will be banging on the door to take Desire Doue's spot. Kvicha Kvaratskhelia and Ousmane Dembele will complete the front trio while Fabian Ruiz, Vitinha and Joao Neves will start in the engine room. No changes are expected in defense, with Marquinhos and William Pacho paired at the heart of the back, Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes out wide.
Arsenal vs PSG Betting Tips
Arsenal have won nine of their last 11 Champions League home games to nil. One exception was a meaningless 2-2 draw against PSV after a 7-1 win in the first leg in Netherlands.
PSG have dramatically improved since the turn of the year. Neither Ousmane Dembele nor January signing Kvicha Kvaratskhelia featured in the league-phase loss at Arsenal. Despite losing, the Ligue 1 outfit had more shots (10 to 6) and hit the woodwork twice.
Luis Enrique's men have frustrated both Liverpool and Aston Villa and we expect PSG to earn at least a draw.
The Gunners are solid unit and both teams will be more cautious in the first leg, so a 1-1 stalemete is our pick in the Correct Score market.
Arsenal full-back will have a lot of work to do, so we back Jurrien Timber to have 2+ tackles and Desire Doue to win 2+ fouls. Achraf Hakimi is the defender with most shots attempted and we back him to have 1+ shots at Emirates.
