PSG vs Arsenal

PSG is set to finish up the job against the English side Arsenal, as they will meet on Wednesday night in Paris for the second leg.

PSG has just only one task to further cement the victory against Arsenal, by defending and counter-attack. While the Gunners has just purpose in Paris, to overturn a 1-0 deficit from the first leg last week in order to reach only a second Champions League final in their history.

Defeat at home to Bournemouth at the weekend means Mikel Arteta’s side have been dragged back into a race just to qualify for next season’s competition. Paris Saint Germain also lost at the weekend – albeit with an heavily rotated team – and have only won once in their last four fixtures in all competitions. Though that came at the Emirates Stadium.

Having already dumped out two Premier League sides in the knockout stages, the Ligue 1 champions are aiming to make it a hat-trick and ensure Arsenal end the season without any silverware.

PSG Team news

Ousmane Dembele has been a significant doubt for the second leg, having been forced off at the Emirates with what PSG confirmed after the match was a hamstring strain.

He played no part as a much-changed PSG were beaten by Strasbourg over the weekend but French outlet L’Equipe are reporting that Dembele completed gym work over the weekend and then returned to first-team training on Monday.

Arsenal Team news

Kai Havertz injury
Kai Havertz

Arsenal have a doubt over Jurrien Timber after he limped off in the first leg and, subsequently, was left out of the matchday squad for the defeat by Bournemouth. Kai Havertz is on course to return from injury before the end of the season but this game is likely to come too soon as he misses out along with Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel and Takehiro Tomiyasu.

Jorginho and Riccardo Calafiori are doubtful, but Thomas Partey is available after missing the game last week through suspension and captain Martin Odegaard has allayed any injury fears surrounding himself.

PSG vs Arsenal correct score prediction

A lose on Wednesday night and the gunners season is pretty much over with just a top-five battle in the Premier League to contend for.

Whilst the Gunners were overrun by PSG in the opening stages last week, their response midway through the first-half should provide hope of completing a comeback.

PSG aims to get a win in paris, with advantage from the home fans.

Prediction: PSG 2-1 Arsenal
