On Thursday, PSG will face Chelsea to begin their UEFA Women’s Champions League campaign (October 20). By defeating Hacken 4-1 on the road in the qualifications, the hosts advanced to the group stage. Chelsea, on the other hand, was automatically qualified because they were the current Super League winners.
The Blues just defeated Everton 3-1 in the WSL. Pernille Harder started the scoring with a pair of goals in the first half, while Niamh Charles added the last goal in stoppage time. In the French Division 1 Women, PSG defeated Dijon with the same score in victory. For the capital side, Lieke Martens, Grace Geyoro, and Ramona Bachman discovered the net’s back.
PSG vs Chelsea Prediction
Nearly equal in strength and form going into the game are PSG and Chelsea.
The English champions will want to improve on their terrifying group stage departure from the previous campaign, in which they were ousted in a three-way tie. PSG, on the other hand, advanced all the way to the semifinals before losing to Olympique Lyon, a rival team from their country and the ultimate champions.
Paris has a minor advantage due to home advantage, but Chelsea has more than enough ability to leave the French city with a victory. Both teams could win, but if the game ends in a high-scoring draw, the winnings could be split.
Prediction: Chelsea 2-2 PSG
