Paris Saint-Germain on top: Ferran Torres to test the keeper, and Gianluca Mancini kept busy stopping them.
Our model gives Paris Saint-Germain a 66% chance of winning this Champions League game. A AS Roma win is 15% and a draw 18%. Our predicted score is Paris Saint-Germain 2–1 AS Roma, at 9%. Our expected goals are 2.6 for Paris Saint-Germain and 1.2 for AS Roma, 3.8 in all. Both teams scoring is 64% and three or more goals is 72%.
Of the players, Désiré Doué of Paris Saint-Germain tops our shots forecast at 3.4, if they start. Donyell Malen (AS Roma) leads for shots on target, at 1.4. For cards, Marten de Roon (AS Roma) has been booked once every 3 games in 2026/27, more often than anyone else here. On form, Paris Saint-Germain have six wins, no draws and no defeats from their last six games, and AS Roma have four wins, one draw and one defeat.
On shots, our forecast is 20.0 for Paris Saint-Germain and 7.7 for AS Roma, with 5.9 and 3.3 on target, and corners at 6.0 to 2.7. So we expect Paris Saint-Germain to do more of the shooting. Bawler's pick combines Paris Saint-Germain or Draw, Gianluca Mancini 1+ Foul Committed and Ferran Torres 1+ Shot on Target. We make the chance of all three coming in 50%, a fair price of Evens (2.01).
