International Champions Cup
Club Friendly
Kick-off: Wednesday, 7:30 p.m. ET
Line: Real Madrid +155, Paris Saint-Germain +155, Tie +260, Total: 2.5

Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain meet in a high-profile friendly on Wednesday.

Real Madrid will be without many of its international superstars when the club takes on Paris Saint-Germain in Ohio on Wednesday, including Cristiano Ronaldo, but this side will still have plenty of quality in its first preseason match. Kiko Casilla is expected to start in goal, while the defense could be composed of Fabio Coentrao, Nacho, Marcelo, and Danilo. In midfield, Mateo Kovacic, Luka Modric, Isco, and Marco Asensio could play, with Jese and Karim Benzema likely to get the nod in attack. PSG started it’s International Champions Cup campaign with a 3-1 win over Inter Milan, and will field a strong side featuring Alphonse Areola in net, with Serge Aurier, Thiago Silva, Presnel Kimpembe, Maxwell, Layvin Kurzawa, and Thomas Meunier all expected to feature at some point in defense. Lucas Moura, Benjamin Stambouli, Javier Pastore, Angel Di Maria, and Adrien Rabiot will all play in midfield, with Hatem Ben Arfa and Edinson Cavani likely to see time up front. This game will have better forwards than defenders, and over 2.5 goals should be scored. Having already played a game and featuring more regulars, PSG will prevail with another 3-1 victory.
