Villarreal v PSG is predicted to be a high-scoring encounter, as PSG have scored a large number of goals across three rounds but have not kept a clean sheet, while Villarreal also average high goal numbers. Mika Godts is suggested as a potential anytime goalscorer, having recently scored against Lyon and Le Havre, and is likely to start due to injuries to Dembele and Kvaratshkelia. Both selections depend on attacking form and possible team news.

PSG are scoring for fun in the UCL, netting 14 goals in just three games. All of Villarreal's Champions League matches were high-scoring so far, and I expect this trend to continue on Tuesday. 

Key Stats  


  • Villarreal have seen BTTS & over 3.5 goals in their last 3 matches (Champions League). 
  • PSG have seen BTTS & over 3.5 goals in 5 of their last 6 matches. 
  • PSG’s Mika Godts has scored 2 goals in his last 2 matches. 

No Previous Meetings 


This is going to be the first head to head match between Villarreal and PSG. 

Mixed Results for Villarreal 


Villarreal started their UCL main phase campaign with a 3-2 road defeat against Borussia Dortmund, but then outclassed Napoli 3-1 in front of the home crowd with Georges Mikautadze, Santiago Mourino and Tani Oluwaseyi finding the net. 

The Yellow Submarine had an amazing start in the third round, scoring two quick goals at Anfield against Liverpool but then their back line fell apart, losing the encounter 4-3. 

Villarreal have played two domestic matches since, registering a 2-1 road victory against Valencia, while their home performance at home against Espanyol was disappointing on Friday, losing 1-0. 

Paris Look Unstoppable Right Now 


PSG crushed Slovan Bratislava 6-1 in France in their Champions League opening match, followed by an amazing performance in England, beating Manchester City 4-2 even though they had 1.83-2.63 xG and 15-27 shots here. 

Luis Enrique's side claimed another big scalp in late October, beating red-hot Barcelona 4-2 in front of the home crowd, Desire Doue, Lucas Hernandez, Vitinha and Fabian Ruiz finding the net. 

The Saints also extended their Ligue 1 winning streak to six games straight last weekend by defeating Le Havre 5-1, Achraf Hakimi stealing the spotlight here, landing a hat-trick. 

Team News & Predicted Lineups 


Villarreal (4-3-3) Luiz Reis Junior; Logan Costa, Santiago Mourino, Pau Navarro, Sergi Cardona; Pape Gueye, Santi Comesana, Alberto Moleiro; Tajon Buchanan, Tani Oluwaseyi, Georges Mikautadze

Carlos Romero and Nathan Saliba remain sidelined with injuries and Ilias Akhomach faces a late fitness evaluation.

PSG (4-3-3) Matvey Safonov; Achraf Hakimi, Illia Zabarnyi, Willian Pacho, Lucas Digne; Warren Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, Joao Neves; Mika Godts, Ferran Torres, Desire Doue

Luis Enrique navigates several major physical absentees. Key forward Ousmane Dembele stays sidelined alongside Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, central defender Marquinhos, and left-back Nuno Mendes.

Verdict

All signs are pointing at high-scoring affair in Spain on Tuesday, PSG scoring a ridiculous number of goals in three rounds but keeping zero clean sheets, while Villarreal average high numbers. 

Another bet worth considering is Mika Godts to score anytime. He scored recently against Lyon and Le Havre, likely to start on Tuesday since Dembele and Kvaratshkelia are injured.
