On Tuesday night, Villarreal and PSG will meet in another intriguing Champions League tie. These two teams have very different ambitions in Europe's top continental competition. While Villarreal only hopes to qualify for the knockout phase, PSG dreams of another trophy. Can Luis Enrique's team win at Estadio de la Cerámica? Let's find the best betting option for the upcoming tie.
Villarreal team overview
After two excellent seasons, it seems that the 2026/27 campaign could be significantly more challenging for Villarreal. It is still early in the season, but they have collected only 12 points after 11 league rounds and will have to do much better to finish among the top five La Liga teams. Villarreal have problems in the Champions League, too, with three points in three rounds. Previously, Villarreal lacked consistency, with only two victories in five matches across all competitions. In the most recent outing, they lost 1-0 at home against Espanyol. The hosts had stats on their side, but their poor efficiency cost them points.
Villarreal's head coach, Inigo Perez, was disappointed after the defeat in the previous game. He commented, "Straight after the match, it's difficult, and to be honest, we haven't said anything. But there's no need to say much; the silence in the dressing room speaks for itself. We're somewhat disappointed with what we were able to produce."
Villarreal's forward Gerard Moreno suffered an injury in the previous match against Espanyol and is unlikely to play on Tuesday night. Juan Foyth, Alassane Diatta, and Ilias Akhomach are unavailable, too, while Nathan Saliba is questionable.

PSG team overview
PSG have another excellent season. Although they had a somewhat slower start in Ligue 1, they are at the top of the standings with two points more than Lille. In the Champions League, PSG won all three games and are in a good position to secure a place in the 1/8 final. PSG won the last nine matches in a row. In the previous game, they won 5-1 on the road against Le Havre. The hosts scored first, but the visitors dominated the rest of the match and eventually took all three points.
Luis Enrique was delighted after a victory in the previous Ligue 1 tie. The head coach commented, "It's a great victory. We started the match with the same focus as usual, but we struggled on the counter-attack, and that's how they scored their goal. When you play away, your opponent's motivation is inevitably much higher. But in the end, we dominated the match. We created a lot of chances and we saw our players at a very high level, so we're happy."
PSG have problems with missing players. Ousmane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Marquinhos, and Nuno Mendes are injured and will miss Tuesday night's match.
