Valencia CF - Paris St. Germain 12.02.2013 19:45
The most exciting matches of the Champions League start this Tuesday featuring the top teams in Europe. The french team of PSG is visiting Valencia in what appears to be a thrilling game. For the guests the key figure is Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The team`s performance is largely dependent on the form of Ibrahimovic. When he playes at a high level, as he usually does, PSG achieves very good results. The hopes of the ambitious Frenchmen are nourished by this extraordinary footballer. However, it should be noted that Ibrahimovic does not show his full potential in the matches of the European competitions. While playing for Inter, Milan or Barcelona Ibrahimovic did not demonstrate at best his high level of play that he sustained at the domestic leagues. Undoubtedly, the main problems for Valencia will come from Ibrahimovic, who has scored the impressive 21 goals for PSG and is definitely in great shape.
At first glance, the team of Valencia has superior experience that is gained from the European tournaments. "The bats" perform at a decent level in Europe in recent years, while PSG will participate in the Champions League for the first time in 8 years. However, the players themselves and the coach of PSG have extensive experience of matches in the Champions League. Each one of them is precisely picked for this team as in 2011, when PSG was purchased by Qataris, they announced that they would organize a team to win the Champions League. Just a little later, PSG is one of the serious contenders for winning the trophy.
In the team of Valencia there are many quality players who can score goals out of any situation, but the team`s defence ,this season, is pretty shaky. Valencia concedes a lot of goals and defending against PSG`s strong attack will be a tough task. "The bats" are sharing the fifth place in the rankings of the Primera Division with Rayo Vallecano and despite their financial problems, the team is in the fight for the fourth place in the league. Paris Saint Germain is literally crushing its opponents in France and is now the sole leader in the standings.
We must not ignore the home court advantage, which for the Spanish teams is of great importance. Valencia`s great supporters will surely have an impact on the game. The bookmakers offer very attractive odds for this meeting.
