PSG vs Tottenham Euro football loves a great underdog tale, and the 2025 UEFA Super Cup could give us one. On 13 August 2025, Paris Saint Germain will face Tottenham Hotspur at Stadio Friuli in Udine. Most fans think the Champions League winners will grab another win. Yet there’s a whisper among pundits that Spurs – Europa League champions after defeating Manchester United – could catch the French giants off guard.

Think of an orchestra where the best violin player is late and the leader has hardly practiced with the group. PSG are that orchestra: brilliant musicians, but their summer was packed with matches and little preparation. Tottenham, meanwhile, have spent weeks rehearsing under new conductor Thomas Frank.

Form Guide

PSG – Dominant but distracted

Last year, Les Parisiens were on fire. They won all their home games and crushed Inter Milan 5-0 in the big Champions League final. Summer included a deep run in the FIFA Club World Cup with big wins over Real Madrid and Bayern Munich before a shock 3‑0 loss to Chelsea in the final.

Pre‑season friendlies saw them rack up goals against Inter Miami and Atletico Madrid, though Botafogo delivered a reality check. In their last five outings they’ve won four and lost one, yet the lack of a proper break means fatigue could creep in.

Tottenham – Building belief

Spurs entered pre‑season needing to find a new identity after the departure of coach Ange Postecoglou and the sale of Son Heung‑min. They beat Reading, drew with Wycombe and Luton, defeated Arsenal and drew with Newcastle before Bayern Munich taught them a harsh lesson. Though late‑season defeats to Brighton, Aston Villa and Crystal Palace highlight weaknesses, the squad’s Europa League triumph shows it can deliver on big nights. Their last five results form a curious pattern of win, loss, win, draw, win. That inconsistency might hide a surprise.

Predicted XI

Paris Saint‑Germain

Luis Enrique’s projected lineup features Lucas Chevalier in goal, backed by Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, Willian Pacho and Nuno Mendes.

The midfield balance could shift without João Neves, suspended after his red card. Expect Vitinha, Fabián Ruiz and maybe the industrious Manuel Ugarte.

The attack will revolve around Ousmane Dembélé – who scored 35 goals last season – supported by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Desire Doué.

Tottenham

Spurs’ predicted 4‑3‑3 includes Guglielmo Vicario between the posts and a defence of Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven and Djed Spence.

The midfield trio should be João Palhinha, Rodrigo Bentancur and Pape Matar Sarr, while the front three sees Mohammed Kudus, Brennan Johnson and Richarlison.

Injuries to James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Dominic Solanke and others mean Tottenham’s bench is thin, but there is excitement around Kudus and Palhinha.

Betting Opportunities and Odds

StarBet lists PSG at 1.76 to win, the draw at 3.50 and Tottenham at 5.00. These numbers underline how much of a shock a Spurs victory would be. Yet bettors looking for value often back long shots – and there are reasons to think Tottenham are not without hope.

• Double chance (Tottenham/Draw): If you believe Spurs can either win or at least force extra time, this option reduces risk while still offering an attractive price.
• Both teams to score: Tottenham’s front line is new but talented, and PSG’s defence might be rusty after minimal training. A goal for each side could pay well.
• Correct score: A 2‑1 Tottenham win replicates the scoreline predicted by some analysts.
• First scorer: Brennan Johnson wrote his name into club history in Bilbao. Back him or Mohammed Kudus for higher payouts.

Prediction

Why consider an upset? Tottenham have had weeks of preparation under their new coach, while PSG’s stars only returned from holiday in early August. History shows that Champions League winners usually win the Super Cup, but Thomas Frank’s side can exploit a slow‑starting PSG.

The Parisians might lack rhythm and could be without their suspended midfielder. Meanwhile Spurs will play without pressure and can spring counter‑attacks through the pace of Johnson and the creativity of Kudus.

Taking all these factors into account, our daring call is a 2‑1 victory for Tottenham. We anticipate Spurs scoring first and then defending for their lives. PSG will surely respond, but a late breakaway goal could seal a historic triumph. Punters seeking safer bets might back over 2.5 goals or Tottenham with a +1 handicap.
