PSG vs Bayern Munich prediction: EUROPE: Champions League – League phase betting tips on match 2025-11-03 20:00.
[p]Perennial champions of their respective domestic leagues, PSG and Bayern Munich come into matchday four of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) league phase as the top two. [/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]PSG needed a 94th minute winner to edge past Nice at the weekend, but their 1-0 victory kept them top of Ligue 1 as they pursue a fifth successive domestic crown. Saturday’s win stretched the Parisians’ unbeaten run to eight games in all competitions (W5, D3), with two UCL victories bedded within, one of which was a thumping 7-2 success against another German side in Bayer Leverkusen on matchday three. With the chance to now post a swift German double, one more UCL victory would mark PSG’s longest-ever winning run in the competition having emerged victorious from their last six UCL games, but a failure to win their fourth group/league phase match in each of last four editions (D2, L2) means there must be some doubt about them achieving that. [/p]
[p]Bayern were also comfortable victors over Leverkusen at the weekend, downing them 3-0 to stretch their remarkable Bundesliga start to nine wins from nine games. There’s been no stopping them on the European stage this season either, as the Bavarian giants have already dispatched Chelsea, Pafos and Club Brugge by 2+ goal margins. All told this term, Bayern have won all 15 of their competitive outings, but they’d be wise not to take anything for granted here, having won none of their last five UCL games against the competition’s reigning champions (D1, L4) in spite of losing only only three of their last 51 games in the group/league phase (W44, D4).[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Bayern have won the last four UCL H2Hs without conceding a single goal, but it was PSG who won to nil when these two sides met in the summer’s FIFA Club World Cup. PSG have been beaten more by Bayern than any other side in the UCL (W6, L8).[/p]
