PSG V ST ETIENNE PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS

PSG is a solid leader and looks strong enough to keep its position for long time. It’s the only team undefeated of the league this season (6-4-0) and they are looking for a third win in a row by hosting St Etienne on Saturday.

St Etienne (5^th) is really one of the outsider of the league this season. They won 4 games, drew 3 and lost 3 games. They are in a really good form at the moment win 2 convincing wins at home and 1 draw away during the last 3 games.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Carlo Ancelotti came back to his 4-3-3 favorite’s formation with 3 real offensive players during last game against Nancy. Despite many offensive players on the pitch, once again, PSG managed to win the game thanks to an achievement of Ibrahimovic who scored the only goal of the game by himself. It will be interesting to see how Paris will play against a strong opposition at home. Thiago Motta and Chantome will still be out for this game but Lavezzi is back to training and might be able to play few minutes during this game.

After a great game at home against a direct opponent (2-0 against Rennes), the green boys manage to easily win in league cup this week. Thanks to 2 goals from Roman Hamouma and 1 from Alonso, St Etienne players have imposed their law logically in Sochaux (0-3) to win their ticket to the quarter-finals. Defenders Zouma and Mignot (injured) will miss the game against Paris but their star Aubemayang will be fit to try to get a good result in Parc des Princes.

PSG V ST ETIENNE PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

PSG is seen as clear favourite, the best price is offered at 1.45 with Betvictor. The draw is at 4.40 with Pinnacle and St Etienne to win is priced at a nice odd of 9.10 with the same bookmaker. I don’t see any value on PSG which is logical when we consider their recent form and home record. On the other side, St Etienne has a huge odd, which could deserve a small stake.

PSG V ST ETIENNE PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

Last year, Paris won both meetings (2-0 and 0-1 in St Etienne), actually the Parisians didn’t loose against St Etienne since 2008. However, St Etienne is playing very well this season and they are travelling to Paris with no pressure at all and a team full of confidence so i would advise to back on them with the handicap set at + 1.25 @ 1.78 with Betvictor.

PSG V ST ETIENNE PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

Really hard to predict how many goals will be scored here: the market sees the over 2.5 goals as a small favorite at 1.91 with Ladbrokes. The best price for the under is offered by Pinnacle at 1.98. The average of goals scored PSG’s games this season is 2.10 and it is 2.40 for St Etienne. I think the value is on the under for this market so I would pick the 1.98 odd offered by Pinnacle.
