Paris Saint-Germain vs Toulouse Prediction 03.01.2024

• Competition: France &— Super Cup
• Date: Wednesday, 3rd, January 2024
• Kickoff: 19:45 UTC / 20.45 CET
• Venue: Parc des Princes (Paris)

On Wednesday, Paris Saint-Germain has the chance to win the season’s first trophy on French ground as they compete against Toulouse in the Trophee des Champions at the Parc des Princes.

After securing last season’s Ligue 1 title with a narrow one-point lead over RC Lens, Les Parisiens have now earned the opportunity to compete for their 12th French Super Cup trophy. This win was harder fought than expected. Now, in the current season, the capital club is confidently on track to claim another top-flight victory, currently sitting five points ahead of their closest competitor, OGC Nice. The team has navigated the league campaign successfully, including making it to the last 16 in the Champions League. PSG plans to start 2024 in spectacular fashion.

Toulouse made history by making their first appearance in the Trophee des Champions final, surprising everyone in French football last season. They won the Coupe de France, which not only added to their trophy collection, but also automatically qualified them for the Europa League. Carles Martinez Novell’s team demonstrated exceptional commitment to secure a place in the elimination rounds, finishing second in the group stage, just one point behind Liverpool who topped the group. However, their league performance has been less impressive, currently ranking 16th with only 14 points, just two points above the automatic relegation zone.

PSG vs Toulouse Betting Tips: Under 3.5

Securing a record 12th Trophee des Champions would be an excellent start to 2024 for Luis Henrique and his team, but Toulouse is not expected to surrender easily at the Parc de Princes, and a low-scoring game is probable. This prediction is prompted by the recent underwhelming performance of Les Parisians’ offense, which has scored no more than two goals in five of the past six competitive matches, and four of those matches did not exceed the 2.5-goal mark.

Les Violets have proven themselves to be a challenge for top-tier teams, including PSG, who they managed to tie 1-1 in their second Ligue 1 match. They aim to cause difficulties for the capital team once more. Moreover, recent matches between these teams have not been high-scoring, with only one of the last seven games exceeding 3.5 goals. This supports our prediction for a low-scoring game in the upcoming contest. Overall, we anticipate Toulouse will provide a solid defense to prevent a midweek defeat, leading PSG to a likely modest victory.
