Team Analysis

Paris Saint-Germain: PSG concluded a dominant 2024/25 season, winning a domestic treble and the Champions League. Although Kylian Mbappé has since moved to Real Madrid, the club's new stars, such as the Ballon d'Or contender Ousmane Dembélé, Vitinha, and Doué, are in great form. A 3-0 defeat to Chelsea in the Club World Cup brought them back to reality, but the quality of Luis Enrique's squad is undeniable.

Tottenham: Tottenham approaches the match with mixed feelings. Their Europa League victory was a historic success, but the loss of key players complicates their situation. Heung Min Son has transferred to MLS, and James Maddison is sidelined for a long period with an ACL injury. The new manager, Thomas Frank's pragmatic approach will be crucial, but based on their pre-season results (for example, a 4-0 loss to Bayern Munich), the team has not yet fully settled.

Expected Lineups

• PSG: Chevalier – Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes – Vitinha, Ruiz, Doué – Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia, Barcola

• Tottenham: Vicario – Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Spence – Palhinha, Bentancur, Sarr – Kudus, Johnson, Richarlison

Player Absences:

• PSG: Donnarumma G. (coach's decision), Mukiele N. (muscle injury), Neves J. (red card)

• Tottenham: Craig M. (injury), Dragusin R. (knee injury), Gil B. (knee injury), Kulusevski D. (knee injury), Maddison J. (knee injury), Solomon M. (calf injury), Takai K. (leg injury)

Prediction and Justification

Final Score Prediction: PSG to win 3-1.

Justification: The strength of the PSG attack, led by the goal-scoring threat Ousmane Dembélé, is likely to overwhelm Tottenham's vulnerable defense. While the London team will try to attack and could score a goal, PSG's superiority will likely prevail due to the absence of key Tottenham players.

Betting Tips: Given the expected high-scoring nature of the match, it is worth considering a bet on "Both Teams to Score" or "Over 2.5 Goals."
