Although PSG come into this game bottom of their quartet, their opponents are facing an uphill battle against history. LiveSoccerTV provides facts, stats, and viewing info for the upcoming clash between PSG and Red Star Belgrade on October 3rd.

Match Preview

PSG have been in cruise control on the domestic front so far this season, where Les Parisiens are firmly in control of Ligue 1 after winning their first eight games. That sees Thomas Tuchel's men easily the clear favorites to win another league title, but the capital based club are hoping to make some major inroads in the Champions League this season.

However, the hosts come into this game having lost to Liverpool on matchday one, and that sees them at the bottom of their group. Nonetheless, they are the massive favorites to come out on top in this fixture. Although visitors Red Star Belgrade managed to contain Napoli by putting on a strong defensive performance, the Serbian outfit are facing an uphill battle against history, as teams from their nation have struggled to get good results in France. In fact, no Serbian side has ever won a European fixture in France in 19 prior attempts.

The hosts will be missing Gianluigi Buffon as he serves the final game of his two-match ban that was incurred whilst he was with Juventus last season, but fellow Italian Marco Verratti has completed his own suspension and will be available for selection. Layvin Kurzawa and Dani Alves are both still out injured, and Edinson Cavani is expected to be involved in the starting XI after being given a rest during Ligue 1 action last weekend.
