League-phase pacesetters Paris Saint-Germain travel to Villarreal on Tuesday night, kick-off 8pm (UK time), with the competition’s only perfect record to protect at the Estadio de la Ceramica in the Champions League.
Our Villarreal vs PSG predictions and best bets size up a tough Champions League assignment for the hosts, with Anthony Eadson finding the value on a night the visitors start as strong favourites.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson brings two Premium Tips for the trip to Villarreal, leaning into the firepower of the league-phase leaders.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Ousmane Dembele to score anytime | 20/21 (bet365) | Ousmane Dembele has been the standout performer in a rampant Paris Saint-Germain attack that has racked up 14 goals in three league-phase games. He found the net against Barcelona last time out. Also, he has the pace to exploit a Villarreal side that has conceded seven times on its travels and looked vulnerable in transition. Priced at 20/21 with bet365, the France forward is a fair call to add to his tally. After all, the visitors should dominate possession and chances in the final third. |
| Achraf Hakimi to assist anytime | 7/2 (bet365) | Achraf Hakimi is one of the most attacking full-backs in Europe and a central part of how Paris Saint-Germain create. He overlaps constantly from right-back and supplies the final ball. Moreover, against a Villarreal team committed to attacking at home there should be room to exploit in behind. The visitors have scored 14 goals already and spread the creativity across the side. As a result, at 7/2 with bet365 Hakimi to register an assist looks a smart way into a game the leaders are strongly fancied to win. |

How Villarreal go into the game
Villarreal sit 19th in the league phase on three points. However, their problems have come on the road. Last time out they lost 4-3 at Liverpool. Both of their defeats have come away from home, where they have shipped seven goals in two games. The other was a 3-2 reverse at Borussia Dortmund. In contrast, the Estadio de la Ceramica tells a different story. They beat Napoli 3-1 on their only home outing. Also, in Georges Mikautadze they carry a striker capable of troubling even this PSG defence.
How PSG go into the game
Paris Saint-Germain head to Spain top of the league phase with a perfect record, nine points and 14 goals from three games. Last time out they beat Barcelona 4-2 at home. They had already won 4-2 at Manchester City. A 6-1 rout of Slovan Bratislava completed the set. Ousmane Dembele has been irresistible and Achraf Hakimi a constant threat from right-back, giving them match-winners all over the pitch.
Villarreal vs PSG head-to-head
These two clubs have never met in the Champions League, so there is no head-to-head record to call on. Paris Saint-Germain and Villarreal come into Tuesday’s meeting as strangers, which only adds to the intrigue at the Estadio de la Ceramica.
Villarreal vs PSG predictions & betting tips
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| PSG to win | 4/7 (Betfred) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Paris Saint-Germain are the only side in the league phase with a perfect record and have already won at tougher venues than this, making them worthy favourites. |
| Both teams to score | 4/9 (William Hill) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Villarreal scored three at home against Napoli and Paris Saint-Germain have conceded in every game so far, so both sides finding the net is well backed. |
| Over 2.5 goals | 4/11 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Every Paris Saint-Germain game this season has produced at least three goals, and Villarreal’s matches have been open at both ends too. |
| Villarreal 1-2 PSG | 8/1 (bet365) | ⭐⭐ | A narrow away win fits the firepower of the leaders and Villarreal’s habit of scoring in front of their own fans. |
