Champions League journey with a home win against RB Leipzig, Diego Simeone's squad now face the challenge of ending their losing streak in the French capital this week.
Paris Saint-Germain possible starting lineup: Safonov; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, Neves; Dembele, Asensio, Barcola
Atletico Madrid possible starting lineup: Oblak; Molina, Witsel, Gimenez, Reinildo; De Paul, Koke, Barrios, Lino; Alvarez, Griezmann
Diego Simeone both need a win. The French giants look more convincing given their chances wasted to beat opponents but their Spanish visitors are under pressure after two defeats. This one should be fairly tense but PSG should just about have enough to emerge victorious for a second League Phase win. Pick: PSG 2, Atletico 1.
The predicted lineups suggest that PSG will deploy a 4-3-3 formation featuring Safonov in goal and an attacking trio of Dembele, Asensio, and Barcola . In contrast, Atletico is expected to adopt a 4-4-2 formation led by Griezmann and Alvarez up front. Despite PSG being favored due to their home advantage and stronger squad depth, Atletico's tactical resilience under Diego Simeone could lead to a closely contested match.
Viewers can catch the live stream on platforms such as TNT Sports 5 in the UK and Paramount+ in the US. As both teams seek crucial points for their respective Champions League aspirations, fans can anticipate an intense battle filled with strategic play and individual brilliance.
