Atletico’s recent struggles in the Champions League and poor away record—only one win in their last 10 away UCL matches—add to the challenge. PSG’s recent home form has also been shaky, with just one win in their last four Champions League fixtures at Parc des Princes.

MStats’ Top Player Picks:

Ousmane Dembele: PSG’s Early Scorer

Dembele’s early goals have been crucial for PSG, including the match-winner in their recent 1-0 victory over Lens. Known for his speed and creativity, Dembele will be vital in breaking down Atletico’s solid defensive line and exploiting their occasional lapses on the road.

Antoine Griezmann: Atletico’s Go-To Attacker

Griezmann remains Atletico’s creative and scoring hub. His experience and ability to perform in high-stakes matches make him Simeone’s key asset in challenging PSG’s defence. With Atletico averaging over 2.5 goals in recent Champions League games, Griezmann’s playmaking and finishing will be critical.

Luis Enrique vs. Diego Simeone: Different Philosophies in Play

Luis Enrique’s attacking philosophy has created excitement at PSG, but defensive lapses, especially in the Champions League, have cost them valuable points. 

Simeone’s Atletico, known for their disciplined defense and counter-attacking style, may find joy against a PSG side struggling to maintain clean sheets. PSG will look to control possession and build attacks from the back, while Atletico may sit deep, aiming to strike on the counter.

Atletico’s scoring struggles in away games clash with PSG’s shaky defense at home, setting up an interesting tactical battle. PSG’s potential to score but struggle defensively will play into Atletico’s pressing game.

Final Takeaway:

This fixture promises to be a blend of tactical discipline and offensive power. PSG’s need for a strong first-half performance, as stressed by Luis Enrique, will be tested against Atletico’s resilient setup.

Both sides will view this game as a make-or-break moment in their UCL campaigns, with PSG aiming to turn around their Champions League home form, and Atletico looking to secure a rare away win.

MSport’s Top Player Pick from M Stats:

Alejandro Garnacho: United’s Creative Force

Garnacho was instrumental in United’s recent 5-2 EFL Cup triumph over Leicester in what was the first game after Ten Hag’s sack, contributing two goals by scoring one himself and setting up another.

According to M Stats, United averages just 0.8 goals per every home EPL game, but Garnacho with one goal and one assist to his name in United's 4 home league games so far, will be crucial in breaking Chelsea’s defense.

Chelsea’s high scoring rate of 2.8 goals per game in EPL away games points to an aggressive offensive approach and with Jackson scoring in every 1.8 shot, he will be useful.

Van Nistelrooy vs Maresca: Contrasting Styles Collide

Home & Away Matches Stats in the League for Man United (Home) & Chelsea (Away) by M Stats

Ruud van Nistelrooy, filling in as interim coach, has revitalized United with an attacking approach, as seen in their recent win over Leicester. Maresca’s Chelsea, on the other hand, has built a balanced 4-2-3-1 setup that emphasizes midfield control and high pressing. United’s defensive lapses could be tested by Chelsea’s structured pressing.

Alejandro Garnacho & Nicolas Jackson

M Stats says, Chelsea have scored 11 league goals from just 4 away games, while United have struggled to find the net at the Old Trafford with only 3 goals in their 4 home games. This difference in efficiency would have been a problem for United if not for Chelsea’s 70% score in BTTS in their last 10 away league games.
