PSG host Man City at Parc des Princes Stadium (Paris) in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals and the match kicks off at 8 pm (UK) on Wednesday, April 27. Read our reasons for PSG vs Man City prediction and betting tips.
PSG drew 3-3 on aggregate with Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals, but a 3-2 win in Germany was enough to secure a semi-final spot on away goals. A 3-1 win at Metz on Saturday was a timely boost for the Parisian side, who have won only three of their last eight competitive games at the Parc des Princes. On the other hand, Man City will have the wind in their sails as they make the trip across the Channel following their 1-0 Carabao Cup final win over Tottenham. Their only defeat away from the Etihad Stadium in their last 22 was a 1-0 loss to Chelsea at Wembley last weekend, and after back-to-back victories on their travels, they'll be confident of securing a first-leg advantage.
PSG progressed at the expense of Germany’s Bayern Munich in the previous round when eliminating FCB on the away goal rule in a gripping contest. The German side may have won the battle, nicking a surprise 1-0 away win in France, but it was the Parisians that won the war and kept alive their dreams of winning the UEFA’s elite competition. Moreover, Since losing to Munich, PSG has gone on the goal’s trail, winning three on the bounce in League 1 and netting eleven goals in the process.
PSG have the home advantage and will be desperate to make it count. The last thing the French side wants is to travel to England knowing they had to win. Expect the Parisians to go on the front foot, taking confidence from their recent form. They’ll want to get their noses in front early and pile pressure on their opponents. The French also have the benefit of reaching the last season’s final after gaining revenge for that 1-0 loss by knocking the holders out in the last round.
As for City, they were last seen in Champions League action beating Borussia Dortmund 4-2 on aggregate, winning 2-1 in the second-leg away from home. They followed that with a painful 2-1 loss to Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final, beat Aston Villa by the same score in the Premier League and edged Tottenham 1-0 in Sunday’s EFL Cup final at Wembley. They are hitting form at the right time. after starting this season’s Champions League as one of the favourites to go all the way and lift the trophy.
They have certainly lived up to expectations so far, battling their way into the last four and will believe this is the year they finally become kings of Europe. Having tied up the Premier League title, wrestling the trophy back from Liverpool, Man City will be expected to defend, keep it tight and hit their hosts on the counter. We rarely see the light blues do that, however, and defending isn’t their strong point in this tournament. They prefer to get forward, attack teams and score goals. That should make for a thrilling 90 minutes.

PSG meet Man City having previously been eliminated by the Citizens in their only previous knockout tie meeting in European football, losing 3-2 on aggregate in the Champions League quarter-final in 2015/16, with Kevin De Bruyne scoring the winner in the second leg at the Etihad. PSG looked suspect at the back across both legs against Bayern, though the potential return of Marquinhos will shore up the defence. Nevertheless, City are more than capable of earning the victory in Paris on Wednesday night.

Tucker grew up in London, more precisely in West London. But, unlike many locals, he doesn’t like big and famous teams from that part of the city. Instead, ever since he was a kid, Tucker was passionate for lower divisions. This passion was born when his uncle from Reading took him to the local derby with Aldershot Town when he was 6 and since that moment football was running through his veins. He became a huge fan of the Royals for life, and whenever he could, he goes to Madejski Stadium to enjoy the game. Apart from being a job, his sports knowledge also becomes more than useful when he is betting live on high stakes which is also his passion.
