2023-24 UEFA Champions League: Barcelona vs PSG Prediction

Barcelona

PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Marquinhos, Danilo Pereira, Skriniar, Nuno Mendes; Vitinha, Ugarte, Fabian Ruiz; Dembele, Goncalo Ramos, Mbappe

PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Ter Stegen; Kounde, Cubarsi, Martinez, Joao Cancelo; Fermin Lopez, Christensen, Gundogan; Yamal, Lewandowski, Raphinha

PREDICTION

In France and the French media, there's a prevailing expectation that Kylian Mbappe won't repeat his poor performance this time around. With Mbappe, Ousmane Dembele, and possibly Bradley Barcola in the mix, PSG are set to be a formidable threat on the counter against Barcelona. Although Barcelona boasts promising young defenders like Jules Kounde, Ronald Araujo, and Pau Cubarsi, they've shown vulnerabilities in defence. Consequently, it's likely that both teams will find the net in what should be another entertaining second-leg clash.
