For PSG the season is not as easy as it was expected before its start. In the Champions League the Parisians barely got out of the group and not everything went smoothly in the championship. The club’s management did not delay the change of coach and dismissed Thomas Tuchel during the season, replacing him with Mauricio Pochettino. Under the guidance of the Argentine mentor, PSG has not yet been able to break out into the leaders. The capital’s club is the second in the table. There is a gap of two points from the leader of Lille, which is certainly not serious, but in the immediate vicinity are Lyon and Monaco, which theoretically could compete with PSG for the title. Last week the Parisians made their way to the 1/8 of the French Cup without any problems. Away, the red-blues left no chances for Brest, having loaded three unanswered goals into its gates. The victory was the third in a row for PSG and in these three fights the French champion did not concede a single goal. Today Neymar will be able to play, who missed the last matches and was recovering precisely for the match with Barcelona. Outside the game is Moise Ken. The player continues to be in self-isolation and Juan Bernat will also not play.
Athletic won the Spanish Super Cup, beating Real Madrid and Barcelona. The team also showed their character in the Spanish Cup, where they managed to reach the final after defeating Levante (3:2 on aggregate) at the 1/2 final stage. In the La Liga championship the “lions” are not so confident, but after 25 rounds they managed to reach the eighth position. The assets of the “red-whites” have nine victories and six peaceful outcomes, which brought 33 points, which is nine less than the representatives of the European competition zone. Basques have not lost in the last five rounds, having three draws with Valencia (1:1), Athletic (1:1) and Levante (1:1). Guests won two duels, namely against Cadiz (4:0) and last Sunday against Granada (2:1), for which we made a prediction. Martinez, who received a red card, will not be able to play today.
