PSG vs Amiens Match Preview, Predictions & Betting Tips


Paris Saint-Germain welcome Amiens to the Parc des Princes as they look to maintain their 100% record in Ligue 1. The champions have looked imperious this season and should outclass the visitors.

Paris Saint-Germain FC


PSG were rampant in their previous league outing as they claimed a 5-0 victory over Olympique Lyon. Despite playing with 10 men for much of the contest, an early strike from Neymar and four goals from Kylian Mbappe ensured they secured the emphatic win.

The Parisians are once again the dominant team in the Ligue 1 having claimed the maximum 27 points from nine matches so far. Thomas Tuchel's team have scored the most goals in the league, conceded the fewest and are eight points clear of their closest chasers.

PSG will be without defender Presnel Kimpembe who is suspended after receiving a red card in the match against Lyon. Marquinhos is likely to partner Thiago Silva at the back while Neymar, Mbappe and Edinson Cavani should continue in attack having combined for 21 goals already this season.

Amiens SC


The Unicorns will travel to the French capital off the back of a 1-0 victory at home against Dijon in their previous fixture. Saman Ghoddos' strike six minutes before the break proved to be the difference in a tight contest.

Christophe Pelissier's team have struggled to find consistency this season having claimed just three wins in nine Ligue 1 matches. They have suffered four defeats in that run and are currently 13th on the table with 10 points.

Ghoddos and Moussa Konate have impressed for Amiens this season having netted four goals each in nine fixtures. They are both expected to start on Saturday but should find it difficult in the French capital.

Head-to-Head 


There have been four previous matches involving PSG and Amiens with the hosts winning three and drawing one of the fixtures. Both teams faced each other three times last season with the Parisians claiming wins in the league and French Cup while also settling for a 2-2 draw in the reverse fixture of Saturday’s clash.

Match-Up


PSG's front three of Neymar, Cavani and Mbappe have already rolled over several teams this season with their pace, skill and movement. They should have no troubles getting the better of Khaled Adenon and Prince-Desir Gouano in the Amiens defence.

Ghoddos and Konate will be the major threat for Amiens on Saturday but both men are likely to struggle to get past Marquinhos and Thiago Silva.
