Why is Barcelona a safe bet to win?
Barcelona is on a roll. Ever since Xavi said he was going to exit Barcelona at the end of the season, his team has rallied to victory after victory. In their last 5, Barcelona has beaten quality team after quality squad, including dominating Atletico Madrid, another UCL quarterfinalist, 3-0.
Even the wins over Las Palmas and Mallorca impressed because Barcelona played steady matches in both. Lewa and his mates won’t let their fans down on Tuesday.

Why is PSG a safe bet to win?
Although PSG fell to Barcelona, the particulars of the match suggest Paris was unlucky. Mbappe and his buds outshot Barça 18 to 15.
Barcelona had 1 more shot on goal, 7 to 6, which proved to be the difference. Before losing to Barcelona and a draw against Clermont Foot, PSG had rolled through their Ligue 1 competition, beating Marseille 2-0 and blasting Stade Rennais 1-0. For sure, Paris can get back on the right track in this.
Possible Line-Up
- Navas
- Hernandez
- Pereira
- Ugarte
- Beraldo
- Mukiele
- Asensio
- Ruiz
- Muani
- Dembele
- Mbappe

PSG vs. Barcelona Betting Prediction
The first match ended with a Barcelona victory, but it could have gone the other way for sure. Paris had the advantage because the match was at Parc de Princes.
Overall, though, Barcelona is playing like the better club. Even before the win over Paris, Barcelona had been throwing down the gauntlet with huge victories over Napoli and the key win versus Atletico.
Barca must keep their minds on this match, though. This weekend, Barcelona faces rival Real Madrid in an El Clasico. Because the El Clasico takes place on Sunday, we should expect Barcelona to put forth a winning effort on Tuesday. Give Lew and his mates the regulation victory.
