Patrick Guillou, Bundesliga specialist for beIN SPORTS, was invited by Le Parisien to give his analysis on the Champions League semi-final between Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain. He sees the German club slightly favored, with some surprising arguments.
« Bayern is in full control of their abilities. It’s a team that manages to maintain a very high level of performance with 14-15 players and will be champions this weekend or next. We have PSG whose current form is comparable to that of last season.
« Paris has the ability to score at any moment »
Bayern tends to leave a lot of opportunities to their opponents. Since Paris has the ability to score at any moment, if they quickly recover the ball, they can hurt Bayern with a quickly triggered pass and by getting behind the defenders. Paris will need to be extremely effective in the final touch.
Of course, everyone can have their opinion on this great European clash. We all want to be there, so the reflections multiply. Each team has very strong arguments, the debate for a “favorite” can be endless. There are especially immense players in strong collectives with a double confrontation that can shift very quickly.
However, it is noted that Guillou’s arguments are debatable, simply because his description of Bayern aligns very well with PSG. The latter is one of the great models in terms of movement and space utilization. The players fully embody the philosophy of coach Luis Enrique.
And he emphasizes that Parisians can score at any moment against a Bayern team that can sometimes lack caution or solidity. It cannot be asserted that PSG will definitely come out on top. But they have the weapons to do so. As they must also be wary of a very good German team.
