Paris Saint-Germain vs. Maccabi Haifa Betting Preview
Paris Saint-Germain
French champions Paris-Saint Germain are having another dominant domestic season. PSG sit pretty at the top of the Ligue 1 table at present, winning ten and drawing two of their opening 12 fixtures.
They have scored a staggering 32 goals along the way, conceding just five at the other end.
Last time out, Galtier’s Parisians eased past Ajaccio at Stade Francois Coty. The sensational Kylian Mbappe helped himself to a brace, while the imperious Lionel Messi was also on the scoresheet.
Group H
Paris is on the cusp of securing qualification to the knockout phase. They are top of Group H in the current Champions League standings, but all four teams can still mathematically make it through.
So far, PSG has seen off Juventus and Haifa and has drawn home and away with Benfica, so three points on Tuesday will put them into the last 16.
PSG at Parc des Princes
Paris’ form at the Parc des Princes has been excellent this term, with only Monaco and Benfica stopping the Red-and-Blues from winning.
They are the heavy favorites to win this one, and you will find the best PSG odds and Champions League predictions below.
Maccabi Haifa
On paper, Maccabi Haifa is the weak links of the group, but Barak Bakhar’s boys have certainly held their own at times.
UCL Knockouts
They are bottom on three points, though the Israelis are still in with a shout of progressing. Finishing in the top two looks unlikely, but can they edge past Juve and book their spot in the UEFA Europa League knockouts?
Domestically, Haifa is going well. The Greens won the Israeli Premier League last term, and they are top of the division right now. So far, Haifa has picked up seven wins and has suffered two defeats from nine league fixtures.
Three Winning Streak
Maccabi started their Champions League campaign with three straight defeats. They lost 2-0 in Lisbon, 3-1 at home to PSG, and 3-1 in Turin.
However, Haifa pulled off one of the biggest results in their 109-year history in their last Champions League match, as Omer Atzili’s double gave the Greens from the Carmel a famous 2-0 victory over the Old Lady in front of over 30,000 fans at Sammy Ofer Stadium.
After their heroics against Juventus in their last European encounter, have Haifa got what it takes to pull off another Champions League shock in midweek?
They head to France as the overwhelming underdogs, but Bakhar’s troops showed what they are capable of in the game against Juve. Check out our PSG vs Maccabi prediction.
PSG vs Macabi Prediction
On matchday two in Group H, Paris Saint-Germain picked up a comfortable victory against Maccabi Haifa at the Sammy Ofer Stadium. The big three of Messi, Mbappe and Neymar were on target in a 3-1 PSG success.
Paris is on the cusp of booking their spot in the last 16 of the Champions League. They face Juventus away from home in their final game, so Galtier and his men will want to get the job done at the Parc des Princes this Tuesday.
Most Profitable Team to Bet On
Paris should be too hot to handle for Haifa on home soil, and our PSG vs Maccabi prediction is a comfortable home victory.
You can get -250 for the home team to be winning at half-time and full-time. As for the correct score, there is good value in +600 for the 3-0 Paris win.
