Micah Richards, a former Manchester City player, has predicted the Champions League before Tuesday and Wednesday’s second leg matches.
Richards said on The Rest Is Football podcast that PSG and Barcelona would have a competitive match.
Barcelona’s “ridiculous frontline” is said to give Hansi Flick’s team an extra edge.
Barcelona, who defeated Borussia Dortmund in Germany last week, leads 4-0 going into Tuesday’s rematch.
With a 3-1 lead from last week in France, PSG will take on Aston Villa in England.
“I think it’s 50:50 between PSG and Barcelona, and that’s not me sitting on the fence,” Richards stated. Although Barcelona’s front line appears absurd, their high line can be hazardous.
“They pounded Dortmund, but Dortmund managed to score three goals.” My biggest concern for Barcelona is that they will be penalized when they play superior opponents.
Slots for the UEFA Champions League semifinals, which will be held on April 29 and May 6, will be determined between today and tomorrow week.
On June 6, the final will take place at Allianz Arena.
For a chance to go to the semi-finals this season, Real Madrid would need to overcome a 3-0 deficit. In the first leg, Inter Milan defeated Bayern Munich 1-0.
