PSG vs Real Sociedad betting preview
Given the form of the two sides, the odds for a PSG win look appealing. The Parisians have been flying in recent weeks, winning three on the spin to open up an 11-point lead at the top of the table and reach the last eight of the French Cup.
In their three most recent wins, Luis Enrique’s team have scored eight, and they were even without the services of Kylian Mbappé in the 3-1 win over Lille on Saturday.
Over in Spain, the form of Real Sociedad couldn’t be more contrasting. In their last four matches in all competitions, they have failed to score once, losing one and drawing the other three matches 0-0.
For some teams, getting out of the Champions League group stage is a major achievement. Real Sociedad seems like one of those teams. And their fans must be fearing the worst in Paris.
PSG vs Real Sociedad key stats
- These two teams have never met before in European competition.
- Paris sits top of Ligue 1 with 50 points from 21 matches. They have won 15, drawn five, and only lost once in the league this season. In all competitions in 2024, PSG has won seven and drawn one.
- Real Sociedad are seventh in La Liga with 37 points from 24 games played. They have won nine, drawn ten, and lost five. In all competitions since the turn of the year, the Spaniards have won four, drawn four, and lost two.
- PSG are without Presnel Kimpembe, Milan Skriniar, Sergio Rico, Nuno Mendes and Layvin Kurzawa. They do have a fully rested Kylian Mbappé available after the star striker watched last Saturday’s victory from the bench.
- Sociedad have Sheraldo Becker, Kieran Tierney, Alvaro Odriozola, Carlos Fernandez and Aihen Munoz all missing. Leading scorer Mikel Oyarzabal is also a doubt.
- The Spaniards have played two more matches than the French league leaders in 2024. Could fatigue be a problem for Imanol Alguacil’s team?

PSG to win on the handicap (-1)
We’ve already highlighted the contrast in form between the two teams. It is just impossible to see Sociedad leaving France with anything other than a loss.
The chances are the PSG will win with a bit to spare. 15/8 for a win on the handicap looks worth the extra risk for the bigger reward.
⚽ Back PSG to win on the handicap (-1) at 15/8 with Sky Bet ⚽
Kylian Mbappé to score anytime
How do we keep this man out of the action? Kylian Mbappé has 20 goals in Ligue 1 this season and three in his six Champions League appearances.
He’s fully rested and raring to go after a night on the bench in Paris last Saturday. And with a transfer to Real Madrid still apparently not agreed, he might be keener than normal to make a point against a La Liga team.
As is often the case, bet365 leads the way in this market offering even money. He is 4/5 elsewhere.
⚽ Back Kylian Mbappe to score anytime at 1/1 with bet365 ⚽
Robin Le Normand to be shown a card
Robin Le Normand has been a regular accumulator of cards over the season in La Liga. In his 19 league appearances this season he has picked up seven yellows. And in the Champions League, he has been shown one card in five appearances.
Born in France, he opted to play for Spain. As a result, he could come under additional pressure from the crowd as well as having to deal with the constant threat posed by the rampaging runs of Kylian Mbappé.
