Comments PSG vs MU (2:00 p.m. on October 21): Discover the truth?

Manchester United will mark their return to the Champions League with a match against current runners-up Paris Saint-Germain. The trip to Paris brought joy back to the Red Devils when more than a year and a half ago they gave a great surprise here.

PSG vs MU after more than a year and a half

Facing PSG in the knockout stages of the Champions League, MU lost 2-0 in the first leg at Old Trafford. But when they met on the patio at Prince’s Park in March 2019, the Reds won 3-1 and continued the away goal law.

Marcus Rashford’s winning penalty in the fourth minute of injury time helped MU have one of the best nights since Sir Alex Ferguson retired. Hands down, it’s Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s best achievement as the Red Devils coach. It was a huge boost for him to receive a long-term contract rather than a temporary title.

However, since then, questions have continually been raised about Solskjaer’s ability and experience in the MU “hot seat”. Earlier this month, the Norwegian coach’s team lost 6-1 at home to Tottenham.

Coach Solskjaer still has doubts

But the international party has come in time for MU and Solskjaer. They have a chance to surprise again before defeating Newcastle 4-1 in the Premier League over the weekend. Thus, MU has won all 4 away games in all competitions this season, scoring 13 goals in it.

However, MU’s opponents are only Luton Town, then Brighton (2 times) and Newcastle are in the Premier League group. Last Saturday, 3 of the 4 goals scored by the Red Devils in the 85th minute.

MU’s 4-1 score does not necessarily reflect the most honest developments in the field. Before having a series of 3 consecutive home games with Chelsea, RB Leipzig and Arsenal, the Red Devils will be guests of PSG.

MU won unconvincingly against Newcastle

MU’s stunning 3-1 win over PSG was only the only match in the last 5 Champions League matches that they did not lose. It is quite possible that Solskjaer’s teachers and students failed in the third consecutive match of the tournament.

Exposed the truth?

For PSG, the 2019-20 season shows that they have advanced in the Champions League. Instead of reaching the semifinals as the best in history, Les Parisiens went through the final and ended up losing 1-0 to Bayern Munich on the day of excellent goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, rejecting a series of clear opportunities.

This season, PSG remains on the list of the brightest candidates for the Champions League championship. The group with MU, RB Leipzig and Istanbul Basaksehir is considered “death”, but Thomas Tuchel’s army is still considered the highest capacity to continue.

PSG wants to pay off the debt in the 2018-19 season

PSG have just lost 7 of 53 home games in the Champions League. They have won 4 games at Prince’s Park since being hit by MU in March 2019.

Contrary to the unstable MU, PSG has prepared to find this rival again with 5 consecutive victories in Ligue 1. The Red Devils have beaten Newcastle 4-1, but there are still many limitations and it is possible that the Champions League is runner-up. The League will expose its true strength.
