Champions League Betting Preview: PSG vs Chelsea

Defending UEFA Champions League champions and French Ligue 1 giants PSG host last summer’s FIFA Club World Cup winners Chelsea in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie at Parc des Princes, with kick-off set for 15:00 on Wednesday 11 March.

Despite being a first-leg clash, there could be plenty of goals between PSG and Chelsea, which leads us to back Over 2.5.

The latest goal and xG statistics heavily favour an Over 2.5 outcome and when the teams last met the match also went over this line. There’s a price of -161 available in the Total Goals market and we’re confident this wager can deliver a return.

Paris Saint-Germain lost their last game, suffering a 3-1 Ligue 1 home defeat to Monaco in Le Classique at Parc des Princes. Luis Enrique's team had 72% of possession and managed five shots on target, with Bradley Barcola registering the goal.

Chelsea won their previous game 4-2 in extra-time (2-2 after 90 mins). This was a FA Cup away victory at The Racecourse against Wrexham. The Blues racked up seven shots on goal and enjoyed 68% possession, with Arthur Okonkwo (own goal), Josh Acheampong, Alejandro Garnacho and Joao Pedro on the scoresheet.

In their most recent Champions League outings, PSG drew 2-2 at home to Monaco in the second leg of their play-off tie (5-4 on aggregate), while Chelsea won 3-2 away to Napoli in the league phase.

Head-to-Head Statistics

The sides last met in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final, with Chelsea running out 3-0 winners. PSG enjoyed 62% possession, while the shots-on-target count finished 5-5. Cole Palmer scored twice for the Premier League side, with Joao Pedro also getting on the scoresheet.
