The stage is set for a blockbuster encounter in the UEFA Champions League round of 16 as PSG vs Real Sociedad will face each other at  the Parc des Princes on Wednesday. While the French giants might not have dominated their group stage, they secured their 12th consecutive knockout appearance thanks to a superior goal difference over AC Milan. This sets the stage for a tantalizing duel against the Group D winners, Real Sociedad, who enjoyed an unbeaten run with three wins and three draws.

Their Performance On Their Latest Matches

Heading into the clash, PSG boast an impressive 16-game unbeaten streak across all competitions. They've started 2024 strong, winning seven of their eight matches, including a recent 3-1 home victory over Lille in Ligue 1. Key attackers Gonçalo Ramos and Randal Kolo Muani continue to find the net with regularity, bolstering PSG's offensive firepower.

The visitors, however, come into the match with a contrasting form. They are winless in their last four games, including a disappointing 1-0 home loss to Osasuna in LaLiga. Their attacking woes are further amplified by the absence of captain and top scorer Mikel Oyarzabal, who struggles with a knee injury.

This will be the first-ever meeting between PSG and Real Sociedad. While the hosts have suffered just one home defeat this season, scoring at least twice in 14 of those games, Real Sociedad boasts a decent away record with only three defeats in 21 matches across competitions. Interestingly, they've kept clean sheets in nine of their last 11 away games, highlighting their defensive solidity.

What Do We Expect From This PSG vs Real Sociedad Match

Considering PSG's current form, a healthy squad, and home advantage, most predictions favor a win for Les Parisiens. Their clean sheet record at home further strengthens their position. However, Real Sociedad's defensive prowess should not be underestimated, and they could pose a challenge if they manage to rediscover their attacking rhythm.

Wednesday's encounter promises an exciting battle between two contrasting styles. Will PSG's attacking power overcome Real Sociedad's defensive resilience? Or will the visitors pull off a surprise victory at the Parc des Princes? Tune in to witness this PSG vs Real Sociedad clash unfold and see who takes the first step towards the Champions League quarterfinals.
