Paris SG - Basaksehir  Prediction, Picks and Tips  


 
  
Last year's finalist has just jumped off the shovel again and prevented an early exit in the group phase. On the last day of the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, the Tuchel-Elf now have the advancement in their own hands. The prerequisite for this is a home win for the eleven from the French capital in the duel between PSG and Basaksehir. While the French have to contest a true final for the round of 16, the Turkish debutant has to say goodbye to the international stage.

The Turkish champions were the blatant underdog in this "group of deaths" and could only surprise in terms of results when they beat Manchester United at home. But the team also presented itself as an unpleasant opponent in the remaining games. The last group game for PSG will by no means be a sure-fire success, but the role of favorites is more than clear.
 
 


 
 

An early exit from the UEFA Champions League would have almost cost Thomas Tuchel his job in the French capital. The relationship with sports director Leonardo has cooled down anyway and a contract extension is currently almost impossible. With the important 3-1 away win at the Theater of Dreams, PSG maneuvered themselves into a comfortable starting position before the last day of the group.

The fact is that the previous year's finalist won both the direct comparison with RB Leipzig and Manchester United. Elimination on Tuesday evening is almost impossible, because PSG would have to suffer a home defeat and the parallel game would have to end in a draw.
 
However, home defeats on the international stage are extremely rare. In the last 58 home games, PSG celebrated 38 wins, drew 16 times and conceded only four defeats. The home record in the group stage of the premier class is even more impressive, with 20 wins in 26 games (five draws, one defeat).
In view of these impressive statistics, the quality of the Tuchel team and the starting position of the Turkish guests (already eliminated), the tip on the home side between PSG and Basaksehir is obvious. For lucrative betting odds, however, a clear victory must be forecast.
 
The French series champion will probably want to press the decision from the start, so a raid-like start is likely. In the 3-1 win against HSC Montpellier last weekend, Tuchel gave some regular players a break. Neymar, Verratti or Kimpembe were not in the squad at all, Marquinhos sat on the bench for 90 minutes and Mbappe came on a brief assignment.

He scored his tenth goal of the season (ninth league game) in stoppage time. A portion of self-confidence to break the gate ban in the premier class. Mbappe has not scored in the Champions League for nine games, and he made 26 shots on goal without being successful.  


 
 
 
 
 

 
 
Turkish representatives Basaksehir have been international regulars since their debut, but this year the team made their first appearance in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League. The 2-1 home win against Manchester United on matchday three was certainly one of the big surprises of this 2020/21 CL season.
 
The fact that the three points collected were taken at home is not a big surprise given the weakness away from home. The Turkish champions have lost seven of the last nine away games on the international stage, and in the last four games there have only been defeats.

In view of the initial situation before the guest appearance in the Prinzenpark in Paris, anything but a fifth away defeat en suite would be surprising. Basaksehir threatens to join an illustrious circle. Only eight teams have conceded four or more goals in three consecutive games in CL history. After the 1: 4 at Old Trafford and the spectacular 3: 4 at home against RB Leipzig, this fate threatens the Turks.
 
While head coach Okan Buruk's team was able to convince internationally, things are not going according to plan in the domestic championship. The balanced 4-3-4 balance means that the Turkish champions can only be found in the completely disappointing ninth place in the table after eleven match days.

The team celebrated its four victories of the season between matchday five and eight in a row, and for the past three games (derby envy against Besiktas and two draws) the team has been waiting for a complete success again. After the last highlight in Paris, the focus must be on the domestic championship.
