Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), a team that has always been a bit of thunder but not much rain, will face the up-and-coming Real Sociedad in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League Round of 16. PSG is relying on Kylian McBarbee, so as long as PSG strengthens its defense, it can reduce its power. It's a good idea to go for a 2.5 goal margin in this match. (Now 643 Thursday 4:00 a.m. live)
PSG has been aiming to win the UEFA Champions League since it was owned by a large consortium, reaching the round of 16 in the last 12 editions, but they were knocked out by Real Madrid and Bayern in the last two editions. This year, PSG is also not outstanding in the group stage, trailing Dortmund by 3 points, and can only finish second to AC Milan with the results of the matches. After the draw, they were lucky to avoid some traditional powerhouses, but this year, Real Sociedad is on the rise in the UEFA Europa League, so I don't think it will be easy to play. McBarbee's last league match against Lille was not used, enough to cope with this battle, but PSG relies too much on "McG", only counting the league has scored 19 goals, accounting for more than one-third of the team's scoring, Real Soccer just need to focus on defense against them, at least to keep a draw, and then return to the home of the next round to fight through.
