PSG vs Dijon: Preview and Predictions

PSG vs Dijon
French Ligue 1
Date: Tuesday, 20th September 2016
Kick Off: 20:00 BST
Venue: Parc des Princes (Paris).

PSG and Edinson Cavani hit back at critics in the finest style as PSG demolished Caen 6-0 at the weekend. Cavani who missed a whole host of chances against Arsenal in last week’s Champions League match in Paris scored four goals in the first half.

PSG coach Unai Emery was under pressure coming into the Caen game as PSG had gone three games without a win but came back with an emphatic victory. Now PSG will be huge favourites to beat Dijon.

Dijon has won just 1 game all season and away from home they have picked up no points. In their last away game they lost 3-1 to Angers and Angers had 13 attempts on goal. This could be the type of game that Dijon will be happy with just to keep the goal count low.

PSG vs Dijon: Prediction

This is a fantastic opportunity for PSG to climb back up the league and chase down league leaders Monaco. The home team are 1/8 to win the match which should tell you everything you need to know, no one expects any other result. Sometimes we see shocks but we won’t on Tuesday, instead let’s concentrate on the number of goals Cavani who is now back again on fire.
