Prediction of a gigantic duel, Real Madrid vs PSG
After being eliminated in the Copa del Rey while currently sitting fourth and 17 points behind Barcelona in La Liga, Real Madrid will shift their focus to winning the Champions League this season,
But to achieve that, first they have to face a tough challenge, when they host Paris Saint-Germain at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on Thursday (15/2) at 02:45 am(wib) and surely this will be the biggest game going on in the last 16 of the Champions League this season.
The two teams last met in the Champions League in the 2015/16 season group round. Madrid looked a bit superior to the French giants, after a goalless draw and a 1-0 home win. From there, Real Madrid managed to lift the Champions League trophy in the end, and then repeat the achievement in the next season.
Meanwhile this will be the sixth appearance of PSG in the knockout phase and they got away four times. However, at the same stage last season, they were eliminated after losing on aggregate from Barcelona. It happened when they got a convincing 4-0 lead in the first leg, after which PSG suffered a shock 6-1 defeat in the second leg at Camp Nou.
Of course, they did not want to repeat the incident, which was eliminated in the last 16. However, Real Madrid are a team with a level that is not different from Barcelona, who got rid of them in the last 16 of last season.
However, when viewed from the form of each team, PSG looks more solid this season, while Madrid even failed to show the appearance of a Champions League defending champions. In addition, the French club look more tactical, while Zinedine Zidane depends too much on the players on the front lines.
Based on these reviews, PSG has a better chance of progressing to the quarter-finals. However, it remains to be seen whether they face tension in the face of experienced teams like Real Madrid.
However, on the other hand, Real Madrid is a team that has a lot of experience in playing in the Champions League. Therefore, despite their recent form they look miserable, but with the experience, they are expected to overcome a tough challenge, even to face a team like Paris Saint-Germain.
