Match Preview
Anderlecht appear to be the whipping boys in the UEFA Champions League Group B. They have conceded 10 goals in three outings without netting once themselves. The task they face against the group leaders Paris Saint-Germain can be summed up by their odds to win this clash – they are as big as 45/1 with some firms.

The Belgians have conceded at least three times in their first three Group B games and three domestic defeats have left them fourth in the Belgian First Division, trailing Club Brugge by nine points. Paris Saint-Germain spent big in the summer and have been rewarded in style. They sit three points clear of Bayern München in Group B, having won all three games, scoring 12 goals and conceding none.
Anderlecht come into this contest on the back of a 3-2 domestic league away win at AS Eupen, while Paris Saint-Germain maintained their Ligue 1 table-topping form with a 3-0 win over Nice on Friday. They also come into this clash with a little more rest.
Our Paris Saint-Germain vs RSC Anderlecht preview outline what should be a routine win for the hosts, despite Anderlecht’s fair record in Paris. We also highlight in our Paris Saint-Germain vs RSC Anderlecht predictions that while Unai Emery’s side are starting to feel the pressure of a long unbeaten run domestically, they should be capable of seeing off Anderlecht with ease.
Paris Saint-Germain vs RSC Anderlecht Prediction and Betting Advice
There is a glimmer of hope for Anderlecht, albeit from the same glass at the back of the cupboard which contains those straws we rarely clutch at. Anderlecht have come away with a draw on their last two trips to Paris, albeit one was a friendly in 2011 and the other a Champions League 1-1 draw three years ago.
There has also been a little tension starting to show in the ranks of Emery’s superstar-studded squad. It is never easy keeping big egos content, and the flare-up between Neymar and Edinson Cavani over who would take a penalty against Lyon a few weeks ago was a prime example. Neymar, bought for £200 million in the summer, was also dismissed after losing his cool in a 2-2 draw at Marseilles last week. Could it be that the pressure of remaining unbeaten in Ligue 1 is starting to get to Paris Saint-Germain?
In our midweek football betting predictions, we find little value in clutching at straws with Anderlecht. They are simply out-matched, even if Paris Saint-Germain take things lightly and, with so much at stake, they won’t. The French side won both halves in all three previous UEFA Champions League Group B games and have yet to concede. With the way both these sides are set up, and given that Paris Saint-Germain are ridiculously skinny odds for the win, following this trend is feasible.
Our Paris Saint-Germain vs RSC Anderlecht betting tips suggest the hosts can win both halves and Betway offer fair value for this outcome to occur.
When looking at the soccer odds for today’s matches, it is perhaps tempting to put faith in Paris Saint-Germain to win to nil, especially since Anderlecht have not come close to scoring in their first three Group B games. Yet they have scored on each occasion they faced PSG in Paris.
The odds for the hosts to win by more than two clear goals are almost identical to them keeping a clean sheet and winning the game. Domestically, Paris Saint-Germain have won every home game by at least two clear goals and would have covered the spread in four of their six home outings. They have won each Group B game by three clear goals or more.
The hope is that Anderlecht will not be taken lightly, having already beaten them handily in the first meeting a couple of weeks ago. If that is the case, it appears that one of the best Paris Saint-Germain vs RSC Anderlecht bets is weighing in with the hosts to be at least three goals better than Anderlecht. The biggest price on the minus-two-goal handicap is offered by Betfair.
