Maccabi Haifa and PSG meet on Wednesday 14 September at 22:00 in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League Group H, live on Digi Sport 4, Prima Sport 4 and Orange Sports 4.
A pleasant surprise in the previous round of the Champions League, Maccabi Haifa, beating Olympiakos Piraeus (second round), Apollon Limsasol (third round) and Crvena Zvezda (Belgrade play-off), failed to surprise again in the first stage of the group . stage, when he lost 0-2 at the field of Lisbon’s Benfica.
Meanwhile, the Israeli champions lost one of their main group qualifiers, Serbian defender Bohdan Planic, formerly of FCSB, to Al Ahly Dubai in the United Arab Emirates for €1.8 million.
Barak Bahar’s Greens, however, have been unerring in the domestic competition, where they sit 1st after four rounds with as many wins.
PSG beat Juventus 2-1 in the first leg at the Parc des Princes after a match that looked controlled at one point but ended on an emotional note.
In Ligue 1, where they lead after seven games with 19 points, Christophe Galtier’s side appear to be using the bare minimum: they beat Brest 1-0 in Paris in their last outing, with Gianluigi Donnarumma saving the penalty.
Neymar is PSG’s best player this season, and after his success with Brest, he moved up to 4th in PSG’s all-time scoring list with 110 goals, behind Edinson Cavani (200), Kylian Mbappe (180) and Zlatan Ibrahimovic (156).
The Brazilian, who is also currently Ligue 1’s top scorer with eight goals, seems to have finally understood what is expected of him, being one of PSG’s crucial arguments in their bid to win the UEFA Champions League trophy.
“I always thought he was one of the best players on the planet. I have a lot more information about what he does on a daily basis. Before, during and after training.
He invests seriousness and concentration in his work. He is a great professional and a great player. I enjoy opening it every day,” said Christophe Galtier.
Superbet gives odds of 1.50 that the visitors will score in each of the two halves of the Maccabi Haifa – PSG match.
