PSG v AC Milan

PSG vs AC Milan Preview

This upcoming encounter between PSG and AC Milan is one of the highlighted fixtures in this Matchday 3 schedule as two European heavyweights slug it out at the Parc des Princes with both clubs looking to push on in the group stage of this season's Champions League, and with just one point separating the two teams, this clash looks to be a mouthwatering prospect.

PSG picked up back-to-back wins in the French top flight on the weekend with a comprehensive 3-0 home win against Strasbourg which followed a 3-1 win away at Rennes just before the international break while on the European front, PSG have experienced mixed fortunes to date as they have won once and lost once so far in the group campaign.

An opening 2-0 home win against Borussia Dortmund on Matchday 1 handed Luis Enrique's side the perfect start to this new Champions League campaign but their success was short-lived as they were dealt a heavy 4-1 thrashing at the hands of Premier League side, Newcastle United, on Matchday 2.

The bigger picture though shows PSG have lost just twice in their previous 12 matches in all competitions along with collecting seven wins during this period which will give the hosts a welcome boost for this clash.

AC Milan on the other hand were dealt a 1-0 defeat at home to Juventus in the Italian Serie A on the weekend which will have certainly been a disappointing result for Stafano Pioli's side as they look to dust themselves off for this upcoming trip to the French capital on Wednesday night.

Nevertheless, AC Milan also have reason to be upbeat about their chances here on Matchday 3 as the visitors have suffered just the two defeats out of their last 12 matches in all competitions and having also picked up no fewer than eight wins in the process, AC Milan will also feel they have a chance of getting something from this upcoming encounter.

In addition, AC Milan have won five out of their last seven matches on their travels in all competitions although results away from home on the Champions League stage have been fairly ordinary as the visitors have gained just two victories from their previous 11 outings on the road at this level.

PSG v AC Milan Verdict

PSG have produced some impressive results on home soil in the Champions League as Luis Enriques' side have lost just once in their last nine ties at their Parc des Princes, picking up no fewer than seven wins in the process, so the French hosts look to be too strong for AC Milan in this fixture, especially as AC Milan have won just three of their previous 16 away ties in this competition.

Therefore, our main bet will be PSG win @ 1.72
