Paris Saint-Germain successfully passed the group stage in the Champions League, where the team finished second, losing only to Manchester City. The leader of the Ligue1 season in the French Cup started successfully, where they dealt with Olnoy (3:0) and Vannes (4:0) in turn. In the current championship of the country’s main football tournament, the Parisians have 14 wins and five peaceful outcomes, which brought 47 points and the first position. It is impossible not to note the team’s best performance in the league in terms of the quality of attack, which differed 40 times, of which nine goals were scored by Mbappe. The last two matches of the Parisians ended in peace with Lorient (1:1) and Lyon (1:1). Messi, Neymar, Hakimi, Letelier, Kurzawa, Draxler, Donnaruma, Diallo, Di Maria and Guye will not be able to play today.
Aston Villa were knocked out of cup competitions straight away this year. Even before the fiasco with today’s opponents, the Lions left the English League Cup, where they lost to Chelsea in a penalty shootout. However, the Blues are already in the final of this trophy. In the Premier League championship, Steven Gerrard’s wards perform quite confidently, but they clearly lack stability and rotation. Over 19 rounds, the team managed to record seven wins and a draw, which corresponds to 22 points and 14th position in the standings. However, the gap from the top ten is some three points. In the last five matches, representatives of Birmingham celebrated success twice with Leicester (2: 1) and Norwich (2: 0), while in the last two rounds they failed. The first duel of 2022 brought an away defeat to Brentford (1:2). The line of attack looks modest, which differed only 25 times. Bayi, Maguire, Pogba and Martial, who has a muscle injury, will not be able to enter the field today. More today match prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
