PSG’s Champions League hopes rest on a precise figure. Find out why everything is not over yet.
Two days before the end of the group stage, PSG finds itself in a delicate position in the Champions League. Despite an upturn in results in Ligue 1, uncertainty hangs over its European future. If the statistical calculations provide some insight, they offer no guarantee: PSG only has a 63% chance of reaching the play-offs this season, a figure which reflects both potential hope and a complex situation.
PSG has two meetings to save the season
To maintain its European dream, PSG will have to face two ultimate challenges. First of all, a perilous trip to Manchester City, where Luis Enrique’s men will have to face one of the continent’s giants. A wounded beast, what’s more. Then, on the last day, they will host Stuttgart at the Parc des Princes, a match which could well determine their future. If the Parisians have approximately two chances in three of continuing their adventure, they will not be allowed any missteps in this final sprint.
PSG’s hopes in C1 reduced to a key figure.
Other French clubs at the meeting
In a context where PSG is fighting for its European survival, other French clubs are experiencing more encouraging trajectories. Stade Brestois, a real revelation this season, is already guaranteed to advance to the next round with a 30% probability of appearing among the eight best teams. Monaco, for its part, displays impressive solidity: 96% chance of maintaining its place in the play-offs, although its hopes of top 8 are almost zero, with only 1% probability. Finally, Lille continues to proudly represent Ligue 1 with regular performances. The Mastiffs are still undefeated.
So, if some French clubs shine on the European scene, PSG will have to prove that it can compete with the best. The month of January will be decisive for the capital club, between pressure and ambitions.
