This meeting will take place at the Parc des Princes de Paris and the kick-off will be given at 9:00 p.m. During the first leg which took place at Camp Nou in Barcelona (Spain) on February 16, Paris Saint-Germain won in Catalonia with a score of 4 goals to 1. In this meeting, Lionel Messi was the Barcelona club's sole scorer. For their part, Kylian Mbappé (author of a hat-trick) and Moise Kean were the scorers of the Parisian team.

In this match they meet 7th against 2nd in the UEFA club rankings after a 4-1 victory for Parisians in the first match.

PSG is moving confidently towards its goals!

Paris Saint-Germain maintains fire on all fronts in which they participate.

They are only 2 points behind the leader in Ligue 1. They continue successfully for the French Cup.

And the starting positions in the Champions League tournament are just great.

PSG have an incredible home record in UEFA tournaments with only 3 losses in their history.

In their last 3 matches they have achieved victories at zero.

Barcelona has started to gain momentum!

Barcelona is going through a long crisis and is now on the rise. The situation around the club calmed down with the election of the new president.

With good games, the distance to Atletico Madrid in La Liga is now only 3 points.

And the team showed character, eliminating Sevilla for the King's Cup.

Of course, their starting position for this match could not be worse. Even a 3-0 victory will not be enough for them.

However, this has no bearing on our forecast. And it just gives us a chance to choose a good bet.

Forecast for PSG - Barcelona

Barcelona has nothing to lose. It is clear that they have to look for hits without delay.

Decisive for the development of this match will be who and at what time will score the first goal.

In their last 7 matches, including the first with PSG, the Catalans scored first. And Parisians in their last meetings allow first.

In my opinion, this is the most probable trend for this meeting as well. Which can logically lead to a victory for Barça at least until halftime.

Then you will definitely play on top of the risk of the guests.

They will leave a lot of free space and anything can happen. But the only sure thing is to have more hits.

This scenario seems most likely to me. And its odds are just great. And I will realize it with a bigger bet.
