Atlanta Hosts Paris St.German in Uefa Champions League Quarter Finals

Italian Serie A side Atlanta is the only Italian team left in the Champions League after Juventus failed to advanced to the next stage although thy won they loss on goal aggregate. Atlanta will be playing French champions Paris St-German who will be with their star player Kylian Mbappe through injury.

The match will be played in Estadio da Luz behind closed doors, the ground is a neutral ground for both teams, Atalanta did well to beat Spanish side Valencia to come this far and Paris Saint-Germain beat German side Burrosial Dortmund. The Orobici proved their worth in the double-header, but PSG is likely to pose a much bigger threat for them than their previous rivals. Considering that important attacker Josip Ilicic misses the game due to personal issues, we are not tempted to put our money on the nominal hosts.

Les Parisiens, on the other hand, are on a quest to win their first-ever Champions League trophy. Thomas Tuchel’s troops outplayed Borussia Dortmund in the last 16 and seeing that key attacker Kylian Mbappe is closing in on a return, we are tempted to put our money on the Ligue 1 giants. Even though experienced winger Angel Di Maria is out of contention through suspension and Marco Verratti is injured, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Neymar and Co.
