Real Madrid Vs. PSG Preview

After dropping the first leg of their Champions League match 1-0, Real Madrid needs to take care of business at home vs. PSG if they want to advance to the final eight 🇪🇸

You can see here that Kylian Mbappe was recently injured in practice, but PSG expects him to play today. Reminder that he scored this electric game-winner the last time these two clubs met in Paris on February 15th. Check out the odds Vegas has ahead of this must-watch match 👇

  • Real Madrid (home) to WIN: +145 (bet $100, win $145)

  • PSG (away) to WIN: +170

  • DRAW: +260

Injured Stars

As we mentioned above, PSG's wunderkind Kylian Mbappe is questionable due to a foot injury sustained during training, but has been included on the final squad. Reports suggests he should be good to go, and considering he's a top two talent on either club, you might want to hold off on any bets until his status is clear ⭐️

On the other side of the pitch, Real's star mid-fielder Toni Kroos is recovering from a thigh injury and won't be made available to play unless he's feeling 100% healthy, according to the club's manager. Kroos has practiced this week, so it seems as though he might actually play

Champions League Futures

Despite holding the record for the most Champions League titles of any club (13), and having won as recently as 2018, Real Madrid is not among the top favorites to win this season 👇

  • Manchester City: +175

  • Liverpool: +300

  • Bayern Munich: +375

  • PSG: +575

  • Chelsea: +685

  • Manchester United: +2250

  • Real Madrid: +3000

Interestingly, Real is favored to beat PSG today, despite PSG's status as a top contender. If Mbappe is unable to suit up and Real wins by two or more goals, PSG's hopes of winning will be done

If you think PSG will advance today on aggregate (they move on with a tie), now might be a great time to place a bet on them to win the Champions League before their odds move closer to Liverpool and Bayern's 💰

For My Parlay Gurus

Last time they played, PSG dominated the battle of possession, holding the ball 57% of the time and outshooting Real Madrid, 21-3. Mbappe's absence, or limited burn, would obviously hurt, but PSG's offensive firepower still outclasses that of Real's. I'm banking on a Messi goal and another PSG win 👇

  • PSG to WIN: +170

  • Lionel Messi to SCORE: +175

Trivia answer: Ronaldo has the most goals in Real Madrid history with 450, I'm sure you got that one. Raúl, who played in the 70s, is second all-time with 324. Karim Benzema is third with 306
