Red Bull Salzburg vs PSG Prediction 10.12.2024 | Champions League

• Competition: UEFA Champions League - Matchweek 6
• Date: Tuesday, 10th, December 2024
• Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21.00 CET
• Venue: Red Bull Arena (Salzburg)

In a bid to stay in the race for the knockout stages, PSG will take on Salzburg at the Red Bull Arena during matchweek six of the Champions League on Tuesday.

RB Salzburg's golden era appears to be fading on the European and domestic stages, with their deficit to table-toppers Sturm Graz stretching to 13 points after a weekend 2-2 stalemate against SK Rapid, a match in which they twice squandered the lead. When it comes to European commitments, the situation is even bleaker for Die Roten Bullen, who have been unable to win more than three of the 15 on offer up to this point, meaning they are on the brink of elimination should they suffer another setback.

Their next European outing sees a stern test in the form of a Paris Saint-Germain side that has slightly slowed in their pursuit of a fourth straight league title, as they were surprisingly held to a goalless draw by newly promoted Auyerre away from home. In European competition, the Parisians have underperformed drastically this season, as they haven’t won a UCL match since scraping past Girona 1-0 in their league stage opener, and their slim four-point tally now sees them sitting outside the qualifying spots.

Neither team has been inspiring the confidence of late, which is why we'll focus on the goal market, as we expect to see the nets bursting at both ends in what promises to be an open and action-packed encounter. After the pointless underdogs Young Boys and Slovan Bratislava, the defensive line of Die Roten Bullen has been the most affected, leaking 15 times from five UCL outings, which results in a bizarre average of three goals conceded per match. At the very least, RB Salzburg will be hoping to improve their scoring tally on the European stage, especially since PSG’s defense has also been prone to lapses, keeping just four clean sheets in their last 14 competitive fixtures. Considering the defensive struggles on both sides, combined with the fact that both will be chasing full points to keep their playoff hopes alive, we expect an exciting contest where both teams should get on the scoresheet with ease.
