It's no vacation for neither Başakşehir nor Paris Saint Germain as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

It's quite the trip for Paris Saint Germain when visiting Başakşehir as the cities are 2800 kilometers apart.

İstanbul Başakşehir form and stats

Last season, Başakşehir's Champions League journey ended in the 3rd qualifying round.

Overall Super Lig stats at home this season for İstanbul Başakşehir are 1-1-1 (wins-draw-losses).

The Başakşehir supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Antalyaspor in Super Lig and win 5-1. Prior to that, an away loss at RB Leipzig in the Champions League.

As indicated by the result mentioned above, Başakşehir played a great game against Antalyaspor and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Başakşehir as they are travelling to their away game against Konyaspor in the Super Lig. That match is four days after this one.

Paris Saint Germain form and stats

Paris Saint Germain was sent out of Champions League in the 8th finals last season.

3-0-1 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Paris Saint Germain in their Ligue 1 matches away. Paris Saint Germain have been producing wins at home as well, producing a total of six victories in a row regardless of arena. Having won their last three away games Paris has no reason to fear anyone.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Paris goalkeeper Keylor Navas Gamboa is eager to challenge this, with his 218 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Impressive finishing from Kylian Mbappé (2) and Moise Kean (2) secured the home win 4-0 against Dijon in their previous game. A 1-2 loss hosting Manchester United before that.

As mentioned above, Paris was the only team on the pitch versus Dijon in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.

Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset. We checked our Tipsway database for earlier, recent games with Paris Saint Germain given similar win odds in an away game. This check revealed 17 matches with 15 wins as expected, one draw and one surprise home win. The favourites won twelve of these games by at least two goals.

The schedule is very tough for Paris now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Ligue 1 game at Nantes is waiting in only three days.

The Paris Saint Germain manager T. Tuchel has got the team scoring on the road, with 9 away goals in 4 league matches. Paris are tighter than a frog's bottom, as only 1 away goal have been conceded so far.
