Paris Saint-Germain are favourites to claim all three points on Tuesday when they face PSV at home in the Champions League.

Luis Enrique's men started their European campaign with a narrow 1-0 win versus Girona but were uninspiring last time out in a 2-0 loss away at Arsenal.

Match Preview

The loss against Arsenal is the only defeat PSG have suffered this season.

Domestically, they have been typically dominant have won six and drawn two of their opening eight matches.

This past weekend, they emerged 4-2 winners against Strasbourg, with Senny Mayulu, Marco Asensio, Bradley Barcola and Lee Kangin all getting on the scoresheet.

PSG Injury News

Goncalo Ramos, Lucas Hernandez and Presnel Kimpembe are definitely out.

PSV Recent Form

PSV have been unstoppable in the Eredivisie so far and have won all nine matches so far against RKC, Heracles, Almere, Go Ahead Eagles, NEC, Sittard, Willem II, Sparta Rotterdam and AZ.

Their only defeat of the season came in Matchday One of the Champions League when they lost away at Juventus, while on Matchday Two they drew at home against Sporting CP.

PSV Injury News

PSV are missing two key midfielders in Joey Veerman and Jerdy Schouten so they are now severely light in that area, while Sergino Dest and Hirving Lozano are also out.

Last PSV Lineup

Here's how PSV lined up against AZ.

PSG - Player To Watch

Bradley Barcola has filled the sizeable void left after the departure of Kylian Mbapep and is PSG's most reliable striker currently, with seven goals in seven Ligue 1 starts.

PSV - Player To Watch

With Veerman and Schouten both injured, there will be added pressure thrust upon the shoulders of midfielder Guus Til, who has three goals and three assists in the league this season.

PSG vs PSV - Prediction

PSV 's hopes of getting something here were already slim but without Veerman and Schouten they will lack enough quality to impact the game in the middle of the pitch. PSG, therefore, will have the vast majority of possession which means plenty of bullets being provided to the likes of Barcola up top.
