PSG vs Barcelona: Champions League Odds, Prediction & Tuesday Betting Tips

Matchday three of the Champions League starts on Tuesday 20 October, and it opens with a big game. Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona both won their first two games and both have six points. One of them will lose that perfect record at the Parc des Princes (21:00 CEST).

Two games start early at 18:45 CEST: Fenerbahçe vs Slavia Prague and Sabah vs Borussia Dortmund. The rest of the evening kicks off at 21:00 CEST.

PSG at home are fast and organised, and they press hard to win the ball back. Barcelona keep the ball better than almost anyone, and their young players go forward with no fear. When these sides meet there are usually goals: their recent meetings have often had three or more.

Prediction: a very close game. Our indicative odds are PSG 2.20, draw 3.70 and Barcelona 3.10. We like over 2.5 goals (about 1.62) and both teams to score (about 1.55). For a bigger price, try PSG to win and both teams to score at around 4.00.

Liverpool have also won both of their games. European nights at Anfield are hard for any visitor. Villarreal are well coached, but they have given up chances away from home.

Prediction: Liverpool to win at around 1.45, and Liverpool to win to nil at around 2.75 for more value.

Manchester City should control the game against AEK Athens at the Etihad. The Greek side will defend deep and look for set pieces. City on the -1.5 handicap at around 1.70 is the logical pick.

Stuttgart vs Atlético is the closest game on the card. Stuttgart are also on six points and play with energy at home, while Atlético are hard to break down. Under 2.5 goals at around 1.90 suits Atlético's usual style.

Liverpool to win, Man City to win, Napoli to beat Bodø/Glimt and Roma to beat Slovan Bratislava makes a four-fold at about 3.20 using our indicative odds. Add PSG vs Barcelona over 2.5 goals to push it above 5.00.
