MUN vs PSG Dream11 Tips for Champions League fixture Manchester United vs Paris Saint-Germain 2 December

MUN vs PSG Dream11: A struggling Paris Saint-Germain travels to England to take on Manchester United in the Champions League. Manchester United’s win over Istanbul Basaksehir ensured that they sit atop their group with a 3-point lead. However, RB Leipzig and PSG both have 6 points each and are within touching distance of the top spot as well. A win for the away side and an RB Leipzig win over Istanbul will blow the group open which makes this a must-win game for both sides. The English side is finally finding their feet with 4 straight wins scoring 11 goals including their 4-1 win over Istanbul Basaksehir. PSG are also on a patchy run of form with just 2 wins over the last 5 fixtures, including a win and loss against Leipzig. They also let a 2-1 lead slip against Bordeaux to draw 2-2. They will look to overturn their fortunes when they take the trip to Old Trafford.

MUN vs PSG Prediction, Team News, Starting XI

A) Manchester United Team News

Injury Report, Unavailability: Manchester United have no new injuries. Anthony Martial missed out on the West Brom game due to illness joining Eric Bailly, Luke Shaw, Paul Pogba and Phil Jones on the treatment table. Axel Tuanzebe, who put in a star performance in the reverse fixture, picked up his second yellow card against Istanbul and is suspended for this game.

Doubtful: David De Gea picked up an injury against Southampton but has trained and might feature in this game.

Expected changes: Former PSG-man, Edinson Cavani, has to be one of the first names on the teamsheet after his performance against Southampton alongside Marcus Rashford. Donny van de Beek has impressed with his performances and should carry on in midfield with Bruno Fernandes, Fred and Nemanja Matic.

David de Gea (GK)

B) Paris Saint-Germain Team News

Injury Report, Unavailability: Julian Draxler, Juan Bernat and Thilo Kehrer will definitely miss out on the MUN vs PSG Dream11 Prediction.

Doubtful: Marquinhos missed the game against Bordeaux and is a doubt for this game. Idrissa Gana Gueye and Mauro Icardi are fit but may not be fit enough to start the match.

Expected changes: PSG are likely to go for the same defence that started the reverse fixture with Alessandro Florenzi, Abdou Diallo, Presnel Kimpembe and Mitchel Bakker. Former United players Ander Herrera and Angel di Maria will look to start the game in midfield and on the right flank respectively. Starmen, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar will be out for revenge after being kept well in check last time out.

PSG Starting XI (probable):
Keylor Navas (GK)
Alessandro Florenzi
Abdou Diallo

MUN vs PSG Today Match Prediction: Despite their position on the table, Paris Saint-Germain still goes into this game as the favourites with SkyBet and Bet365 are offering odds of 11/8 for an away side’s win. Whereas, the home side are poised to win at 7/4 and 9/5 respectively as doing the double over a side like PSG is not an easy task. But Manchester United have scored the most number of goals (12) in the group and conceded the least (4) as well. The Parisians beat RB Leipzig that gave them a fighting chance in the MUN vs PSG Today Match Prediction and will look to carry that form on.

MUN vs PSG Dream11, Captain & Differential Picks, Fantasy Football Tips

Captain Options –

Manchester United –

Edinson Cavani – Edinson Cavani came off the bench to score 2 goals and assist 1 as he powered Manchester United to a comeback from 2 goals down last weekend. The former PSG man will now be looking to hurt his former team helping United to strengthen their hold on the top spot. Cavani currently has an average goal contribution rate of one in 33 minutes.

Bruno Fernandes – The Portuguese has 10 goals and 4 assists in just 12 starts this season. He also has 3 goals and an assist in the Champions League, including the opening goal against the Parisians last month. Bruno Fernandes has created 38 goal scoring chances so far and has been Manchester United’s best player since he has signed.

Marcus Rashford – The Englishman has scored an impressive 5 goals in the Champions League in just 3 starts so far. He has scored against all the teams in the group, including the winner against PSG and a hattrick off the bench against RB Leipzig. In the Premier League, he has scored 2 goals and provided 4 assists, including the assist for Cavani’s winner against Southampton.

Paris Saint-Germain –

Neymar – Arguably one of the best players in the world, Neymar has 3 goals and 3 assists in 6 starts in Ligue 1 this season. He has only scored once in the Champions League this season, which was the winner against RB Leipzig. Neymar has also created 25 goal scoring chances with 22 key passes as well.

Kylian Mbappe – Mbappe has been in fine form this season with 9 goals and 4 assists in Ligue 1 in just 7 starts so far. But like Neymar, Mbappe has also been sub-par in the Champions League with just 2 assists in 3 starts but he will look to run rings around the Manchester United defence using his speed.

Angel Di Maria – The former Manchester United man will want to cause as much damage to his former after not ending on good terms. He has 2 goals and 3 assists in 6 starts in Ligue 1 and 1 goals in 4 starts in the Champions League which was their opening goal in a 2-1 loss to RB Leipzig. The Argentinian has also created 26 goal-scoring chances so far.

Differential Picks –

Alex Telles – Alex Telles has become a regular in the United side of late and has already created 9 goal-scoring chances in 4 starts with a pass accuracy of 80%. He has also whipped in 9 accurate crosses and succeeded in 5 dribbles already.

Ander Herrera – Ander Herrera too moved from Manchester United to PSG and has a goal and assist in 6 starts this season. He has created 12 goal scoring chances too and has succeeded an impressive 22 tackles with a pass accuracy of about 88% as well.
