Arsenal was arguably the better side but is rightfully an underdog on the road in this second leg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out my PSG vs. Arsenal SGP predictions for May 7, featuring Gabriel Martinelli and Declan Rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PSG vs. Arsenal predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Parlay: <strong><strong><strong><strong>Arsenal to win or tie<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> | <strong><strong><strong>Martinelli over 0.5 SOT<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> | <strong><strong><strong>Rice over 0.5 shots<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> (+290)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><strong><strong>Arsenal to win or tie <\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>(-127):<\/strong> The English side out-chanced its opponent in the first leg, registering 1.46 xG while PSG mustered up 1.25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That doesn&#8217;t matter much when the final result is a loss, but it&#8217;s worth noting when looking ahead to Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also telling that the Gunners are tied with Inter Milan for fewest goals conceded per match in this tournament (0.6).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Parisians have Gianluigi Donnarumma in goal, who&#8217;s among the best in the world at his position, it&#8217;s Arsenal that has proven to be the tougher defensive side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gunners played a second leg on the road in the quarterfinal, beating Real Madrid 2-1. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While those were different circumstances with Arsenal up 3-0 heading into that leg, Los Blancos were the favourites to raise the Champions League trophy before that matchup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arsenal is 4-1-1 on the road in the Champions League this season. Thomas Partey also returns from a suspension that forced him to miss the match in London. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He is an integral part of the midfield as the defensive anchor, and his return gives me heightened confidence in his squad to get a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/sports-hub\/football\/champions_league\">Go to full Champions League betting markets<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Champions League SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><strong>Martinelli over 0.5 SOT<\/strong><\/strong> (-104):<\/strong> I&#8217;m interested in this as a solo play, but it&#8217;s also a great addition to this SGP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Brazilian attacker has been consistent against this line, recording a shot on goal in 7 of his last 8 appearances.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>He&#8217;s played at least 89 minutes in Arsenal&#8217;s last three Champions League matches, cashing this wager each time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gunners will be desperate for offence, and Martinelli is the focal point. An uptick in opportunities should be available for the striker, who often clears this line anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><strong>Rice over 0.5 shots<\/strong><\/strong> (-286):<\/strong> Here&#8217;s another pick with solid backing, and the price reflects that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Rice has attempted a shot in 16 of the past 17 games.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>He&#8217;s cashed this wager in eight of his last 10 UCL appearances.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The English midfielder is Arsenal&#8217;s free-kick taker, which could lead to an easy shot attempt that wouldn&#8217;t even need to be on target. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rice can play further up the field in the second leg with the return of Partey as the defensive midfielder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>PSG vs. Arsenal predictions made at 11:36 a.m. on 05\/06\/25.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal will need a comeback effort in Paris to advance to the Champions League final.
