PSG v Real Sociedad

PSG vs Real Sociedad Preview

PSG extended their impressive unbeaten run in all competitions to 16 matches overall when the Paris based club recorded a 3-1 home win against Lille which looks to be great timing ahead of this upcoming 1st leg tie at the Parc des Princes against Spanish visitors, Real Sociedad who were dealt a disappointing 1-0 defeat at home by Osasuna in La Liga on the weekend.

Within this excellent 16-game unbeaten stretch, PSG have also picked up no fewer than 12 wins in the process which will give Luis Enrique's side plenty of confidence for not only this upcoming 1st leg in Paris but also for the return leg in Spain as the hosts look to book their place in the quarter-finals of this season's Champions League.

Qualification through to the knockout rounds though were far from straightforward for PSG who eventually pipped Italian club AC Milan for the runners-up spot but this was decided courtesy of a better goal difference with both teams finishing on eight points apiece.

Two wins, two draws but two defeats provided PSG with a bumpy road to the knockout rounds but having won 11 of their last 13 home games in all competitions at the Parc des Princes, PSG will feel confident about their chances of gaining a positive result here.

Real Sociedad's stubborn looking six-match unbeaten sequence in all competitions was brought to a halt on the weekend in La Liga when they were handed a 1-0 loss at home to Osasuna which doesn't exactly look like good preparation for this upcoming trip to take on PSG on Wednesday night.

The Spanish club had previously picked up three wins on the trot against Osasuna and Celta Vigo, the latter being wins in La Liga and the Copa del Rey which were followed by three draws on the trot which all resulted in 0-0 stalemates.

The bigger picture shows Real Sociedad have been dealt just two defeats out of their last 20 matches across all competitions but Imanol Alguacil's side have managed to capture just nine wins throughout this period and having also been involved in no fewer than nine draws as well within this period, there are question marks around whether Real Sociedad possess the necessary cutting edge in order to gain the upper hand over PSG here.

Nevertheless, Real Sociedad will point towards a pretty solid record away from home where the visitors have suffered just the one defeat from their previous 16 outings on the road.

PSG have produced an impressive sequence of results on home soil at Parc des Princes in all competitions and this must surely place the hosts in a strong position for this 1st leg tie.
