In some moments, PSG still allows itself not to play at 100% in France. The last round meeting with Monaco is worth mentioning, when the Parisians, even if without Mbappe and Messi, lost to Monaco with a score of 1:3. Before that, they were knocked out of the French Cup by Marseille (1:2). However, they continue to lead by a wide margin in the Ligue 1 table, so the primary goal for them is the Champions League.
Nevertheless, in the tournament group stage, PSG also had problems. After getting into a quartet with Benfica, Juventus, and Maccabi Haifa, the Parisians were only second with 14 points. It was hard for them to beat the Italian club twice, but they could not beat the Portuguese one even once.
Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich also has troubles in the national league from time to time. The Munich side is not losing, but in the final third of January, they failed to register a single win in three games - 1:1 draws against RB Leipzig, Cologne, and Eintracht. But like PSG, the team tops the Bundesliga table, understanding that they will improve if needed. In the meantime, it is worth focusing on more important tournaments.
As for the Champions League group stage, Bayern simply had no equal. The Munich side overcame Inter, Barcelona, and Viktoria Plzen with six wins in six games and a maximum of 18 points. The overall score is unbelievable at this level: 18:2.
Expert Betting Tips
We wouldn't risk picking a favorite in this match. The two leaders meet and intend to win the Champions League as well. They both have everything they need, but one of them will be eliminated at the end of their two games. From such signings, we expect incredibly entertaining soccer with many goals scored because both teams have high-class forwards in the attack. It is not yet clear whether Kylian Mbappe will play, but the match will be brighter with him.
After the defeats in Ligue 1 and the French Cup, PSG will fight to rehabilitate themselves in front of their fans. But Bayern will also go to Paris just for the victory - it is worth remembering what the Munich team did in the group stage. We think the title will live up to expectations, and the famous players will show their best qualities, so we suggest exchanging goals and standard total over as the main bet.
