Atalanta VS Paris Saint Germain: Preview

PSG vs Atalanta Betting Tips: Odds & Predictions

Paris Saint-Germain take on Atalanta in the first of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals on Wednesday evening aiming to keep alive their quest for an unprecedented quadruple.

PSG have already swept aside every team in France and have ruthlessly secured the  domestic treble. What lies ahead now is to triumph on the continental stage for the first time. The dark horses, Atalanta could pose serious threats to their conquests though.

The one-legged match will be played at the Estadio da Luz after the remainder of UEFA's showpiece competition was shifted to Lisbon in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.


PLAYERS TO MISS OUT:

PSG: 

PSG champion, Mbappé top scorer, Di Maria best passer [EN / FR ...

PSG will be without winger Angel Di Maria missing through suspension, and the injured  Marco Verrati and Laywin Kurzawa, while their top scorer and ace forward Kylian Mbappe looks almost certain to miss out even after resuming training.
 

ATALANTA:

Football: Four-goal Atalanta close in on Champions League quarter ...

Like their opponents, the Italians will be without their leading marksman Josip Illicic, who has returned to Slovenia amidst personal issues. At the other end of the pitch, goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini has also been ruled out due to an ankle injury.

 
PLAYERS TO LOOK OUT FOR:

NEYMAR:

The Brazilian talisman, for once, is fully fit and running. After scoring in both legs against Dortmund, PSG finally see their €222 m man paying off the investment. An absolute showman, he plays the game like no other. Only Ronaldo, Messi and Lewandowski have scored more goals in the UCL knockouts than Neymar since 2014/15. Can he step up and pave their way for the semi-finals?
 

MAURO ICARDI:

Report: Icardi Can't Block PSG From Signing Him Permanently at the ...

Almost rejuvenated after making the switch from Inter Milan, Icardi is back to his deadly best, and has been banging in goals left and right. Having scored 6 goals in 5 matches against Atalanta from his time in Italy, he will be a menace for the defenders who will have to pay dearly if they make the slightest of errors against the red hot Argentine.
 

ATALANTA:


DUVAN ZAPATA:

Who is Duvan Zapata? Atalanta's Colombian scoring sensation with ...

The Colombian hitman continues to terrorise defenses with his speed, physicality and shooting prowess. His 23 goals in the last year, and 18 this season, prove just how lethal he has been in front of goal. His tearing runs will surely give Thiago Silva and Co. nightmares.

 
ALEJANDRO GOMES:

The diminutive number 10 weaves magic in midfield and notched up 16 assists in the league this season. Quick feet, technically gifted and a dynamic technician, his spectacular displays are a major reason Atalanta have reached such heights. That nutmeg and pinpoint finish against Dinamo Zagreb in the group stage? Voila.

VAR: Boon or Bane?

  Ever since its introduction, VAR has sparked controversies all around the globe. While it was believed before its introduction that it would reduce the human errors and provide the referees a second chance to rectify their mistakes, it now has left us pondering whether technology intervention was required in the first place.      The good point is that no foul committed can possibly go unnoticed but the disadvantages are far more with the most disturbing being it stops the flow of the game every now and then and this doesn’t augur well for the beautiful game as the frequent stoppages are disturbing both for the players and the audiences. By this time, we already know there have been a record number of penalties awarded in this season’s Premier League and credit goes to VAR for awarding them without much hesitation. For the first time ever we saw a team score after the final whistle. Yes, you heard that right. Manchester United’ s game against Brighton was completed...

EL CLASICO : PREVIEW

As Camp Nou gets ready to host the first Clasico of the season, both clubs in their own rebuilding phase will look to get one over their arch rivals. Both clubs have had rather inconsistent starts to the season, by their lofty standards. With the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo, this fixture has somewhat lost its glory but the political reasons behind the rivalry will continue to fuel this fixture.  FC Barcelona have come from a nightmare season,not winning any trophy and conceding 8 against Bayern Munich. With renewed hope, under Dutch boss Ronald Koeman, they have started pretty poorly in La Liga, winning two of their four matches. Although it is very early in the season, Barcelona are languishing at tenth in the table. With all the behind the scenes drama, they have coped pretty well. Lionel Messi will be their star man as usual. Coutinho has done well on his return to the club. Griezmann hasn’t yet found his feet in Catalonia. All eyes would be on Gerrard Pique, who got a red ca...

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE: 2020-21

It's already been two months since that famous night in Lisbon where Bayern conquered their 2nd treble equalling the record of Barcelona in the process of highest number of trebles.         Now, the group stages has some mouth watering fixtures, the most notable being PSG v/s Man U. After that embarrassing night in Paris where the French outfit lost to a young Man U team even after having a healthy lead in the first leg, PSG have come a long way and were only second to Bayern Munich last time around. PSG have a strong team and their only main concern would be their defence after their long serving captain played his last match in the UCL final. Their forward and midfield line do not have much change and will look forward to carry on the form that they displayed last time around. On the other hand United have plenty of problems from their defence to attack. Their uninspiring captain Maguire has led them down more than once with the attackers struggling ...
