The match

Group A of the UEFA Champions League opens with a blockbuster clash between continental giants Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid at the Parc des Princes. With players like Angel di Maria and Keylor Navas having played for Madrid and Neymar linked heavily with Los Blancos in the summer, there is enough ammunition to make this an exciting game. PSG have picked up a laborious 1-0 win over Strasbourg during the weekend Ligue 1 game, facilitated by the heavily criticized Neymar. That win extends their winning streak to three matches and four wins in five (W4, L1) with all the wins coming via clean sheets. They crashed out last season in the round of 16, losing out on away goal count to Manchester United. That 3-1 loss at home remains PSG’s lone Champions League loss in seven fixtures (W4, D2, L1). It is slightly better at home, with the Parisians losing just two of their last 17 Champions League home fixtures (W10, D5, L2) since the start of 2015/16 season. Madrid are in good form too, with their 3-2 La Liga win over Levante making it a run of four unbeaten games this season (W2, D2). Their Champions League run last season ended dramatically, at the hands of Ajax in the round of 16. The Spanish giants have now won four of their last six in the competition (W4, L2). However, away from home, Madrid have won seven of their last eight road trips in the competition (W7, L1) keeping a clean sheet in four of those.

Key Statistics

PSG are without a win in five matches against Madrid (D2, L3) and have won just one in four at home (W1, D2, L1).
PSG have not kept a clean sheet in six Champions League home matches.
Madrid have won four of the last eight matches against PSG, including the last three.

The bet of our experts

Both sides had a tricky start to the season, but have recovered just in time ahead of this blockbuster clash. PSG would be keen to continue their recent dominant record in the group stages of the competition. Madrid have looked good in their last couple of matches, although the stutter is still there. As both sides grapple with early season blues and look to get into flowing form, this match could witness action at both ends.
