PSG v Atletico Madrid

PSG vs Atletico Madrid Preview

PSG picked up a second win on the trot on the weekend in the French top flight when they recorded a 1-0 home win against Lens in Ligue 1, while Atletico Madrid achieved the same outcome as the Spanish side registered a second victory on the bounce with a 2-0 home win against Las Palmas in La Liga.

PSG have recently collected wins against Marseille and Lens, both wins coming in the domestic top flight while the bigger picture shows the French champions have been handed just one defeat in their last 18 matches in all competitions, so Luis Enriques' side will be confident that they can maintain their recent momentum on Matchday 4.

That rare loss came in the form of a 2-0 defeat in north London at Arsenal on matchday 2 of this season's Champions League but having opened their account with a 1-0 home win against Girona along with a 1-1 draw at home with PSV, the French hosts will fancy their chances of making the most of home advantage here on Wednesday night.

In addition, PSG have won six out of their last seven games on home soil at their Parc des Princes in all competitions so it would be reasonable to expect the hosts to hit the back of the net at least once on Wednesday night.

Atletico Madrid also have reason to be upbeat about their chances when they make their way to the French capital for this Matchday 4 clash with PSG as the Spaniards have registered recent back-to-back wins against Vic in the domestic Copa del Rey along with their 2-0 home win against Las Palmas in La Liga on the weekend.

However, before we get too carried away with the visitors from Madrid, it should be noted that Atletico have produced some inconsistent performances and results overall in recent times, winning just three of their last eight matches in all competitions along with slipping to three defeats as well.

An opening 2-1 home win against German outfit RB Leipzig saw Diego Simeone's side off to a flying start on Matchday 1 of this season's Champions League but subsequent defeats to Benfica 4-0 away from home along with a 3-1 loss at home to French side Lille on Matchdays 2 and 3 suggest this upcoming trip to face PSG could prove to be a tricky assignment.

In addition, results away from home in the Champions League have left a lot to be desired where Atletico Madrid have been concerned as the visitors have managed to collect just one win from their last 10 outings on the road in this competition, along with seven defeats - but five of these 10 away ties have also seen both teams score.
