Four years ago, when Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain were adversaries in the Round of 16 in the 2017-18 UEFA Champions League, the Spanish side dominated the two-match series, 5-2.

UEFA Champions League picks for PSG vs. Real Madrid
Before you tune in to Wednesday’s match, you need to see the Real Madrid vs. Paris Saint-Germain picks from SportsLine’s European soccer insider Martin Green. After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Since then, his European soccer picks have been spot-on. Green has generated well over $37,000 for $100 bettors since the 2017-18 season, and he has his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.
For PSG vs. Real Madrid, Green is backing Real Madrid draw no bet at -110 odds. This means that he is picking Madrid as the winner of the match, but if it ends in a draw, the wager is a push. Los Blancos will be the home side on Wednesday and should come into the match feeling confident after three consecutive La Liga victories. The most recent was a 4-1 drubbing of seventh place Real Sociedad in which Madrid took 64 percent of the possession and held their opponents to a single shot.
The opposite could be said for PSG, which enters having lost two of its last three and displaying offensive inconsistency. Lionel Messi helped power PSG through the group stage of Champions League play, but his contributions to his new club have come in waves. He’s missed a fair number of games this season with a variety of ailments and has only scored once since a two-goal performance against Club Brugge on December 7. Neymar hasn’t been completely effective in his return from an ankle injury, while Kylian Mbappe comes into Wednesday nursing a hurt foot after it was stepped on in training this week.
“PSG’s domestic form has remained extremely inconsistent since beating Real Madrid in mid-February,” Green told SportsLine. “Yet Real Madrid should be a lot more dangerous in this second leg too. [Karim] Benzema was far from his best in the last game, and Los Blancos played cautiously. They will have to go for the jugular on Wednesday, so we could witness a more entertaining game.”
