Reasons for Our PSG vs Atletico Madrid Predictions

Both of these sides have faced Arsenal over the past seven days with a youthful PSG-outfit beaten 5-1 by the Gunners whilst a stubborn Atletico side held them to a 1-1 draw before eventually losing on penalties. Atletico’s new signings have gelled quickly although they still have a number of players absent following their participation at the 2018 World Cup. The likes of Kevin Gameiro, Juanfran, Thomas Partey and Luciano Vietto are all likely to feature and it should be a typically strong line-up from the La Liga side. PSG still have a number of players recovering following the summer tournament and they may be forced to name an inexperienced side. They’ve conceded eight times in their first two friendlies and they look behind their opponents when it comes to preparing for the upcoming campaign. Atletico Madrid should win this and can be backed at 13/10 with Bet365. You can get £100 in free bet credits to use on the International Champions Cup.

The majority of these International Champions Cup games have been entertaining goal-fests. With a number of players looking to impress their managers and cement their place in the XI, that pattern is expected to continue here. Atleti are tough to break down but they are still missing their key defenders and PSG should be savvy enough to find a way through. PSG have looked poor at the back so far but Thomas Tuchel is still experimenting so leaks are to be expected. Both Teams to Score? Yes is a short price at 13/20 with Betway but it looks a sensible option in this potentially entertaining pre-season game and is the second of our PSG vs Atletico Madrid predictions.

It’s always difficult to know which players are going to start in these games and the PSG line-up is certainly unpredictable considering they sent out a youthful side against Arsenal just two days ago. Luciano Vietto was very much a bit-player last season and wasn’t playing with much confidence. He netted twice whilst at Valencia, playing just 524 minutes of football but he’s already off the mark in pre-season. He is likely to benefit from a number of the usual protagonists being away and Fernando Torres’ departure to Japan. He can make it two in two here and is a decent price at 19/10 with Unibet to find the net. He is our anytime goalscorer tip and concludes our PSG vs Atletico Madrid predictions.
