PSG vs Real Madrid Predictions

• PSG have won nine of their last ten competitive games.
• Real Madrid have scored in 15 successive matches.
• Achraf Hakimi has five goals and one assist in his last eight starts for club and country.

PSG continue winning form

In a quarter-final marred by a serious injury to Jamal Musiala and two late red cards for PSG, Les Parisiens emerged deserved winners against Bayern Munich, and now their sights are set on fellow European giants Real Madrid for this Club World Cup semi-final at the MetLife Stadium.

The Champions League winners had the better of the chances in Atlanta, with Desire Doue finally opening the scoreline 76 minutes in before Ousmane Dembele put the result beyond doubt for the nine men of PSG in injury time.

The now-suspended William Pacho and Lucas Hernandez will be a blow, but Real Madrid will also be without Dean Huijsen after his late red card against Borussia Dortmund.

Hakimi can send Les Parisiens to the final

Los Blancos put themselves in the driving seat with two early goals from Gonzalo and Fran Garcia, with three goals in injury time resulting in a 3-2 win for Xabi Alonso’s side.

Despite Real Madrid’s European dominance over the past decade, they have only won one of their last four meetings with PSG, and Les Parisiens are a far better side now.

They have won nine of their last ten in all competitions and have scored at least twice in each of these victories. They have only conceded once in this tournament, but Real Madrid are a step up from any attacking side they have faced. The underdogs have scored in 15 successive matches, so a PSG win and a 2-1 correct score prediction appeals.

Achraf Hakimi assisted Ousmane Dembele’s goal against Bayern Munich and has been in stunning form over the last few months. The right back has five goals and one assist in his last eight starts for club and country, and he looks a big price to get on the scoresheet.
