Milan’s strength is clearly in defence where they have been able to rack up any number of clean sheets recently. There was a 1-0 success at Genoa when signing off for the international break, while Stefano Pioli’s side were also able to nullify Borussia Dortmund on their own patch after being unfortunate not to beat Newcastle.
There’s a chance that they can sneak a point against a Paris Saint-Germain team who struggled defensively at Newcastle when conceding four goals although they do boast one of the world’s best forwards in Kylian Mbappe. The French captain will come face to face with international team-mate Olivier Giroud here.
It could be a low-scoring encounter and there’s a case to be made for Under 2.5 Goals when the two teams meet. On the correct score market, you can perm together 1-0 and 2-0 wins for Paris Saint-Germain if you think that they can edge out a team who aren’t blessed with goals right now, with Kylian Mbappe and the above scorelines making appeal on a scorecast.
We think the draw could also come into play and there might also be a fair degree of needle in the game, with bookings likely to be on the high side. We might see Milan stop their opponents until half-time and you can bet on Draw HT PSG FT at reasonably good betting odds. Maybe wait for the teams’ weekend matches before deciding which way to bet.
