Matchweek 4 of the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League league phase is here, and an absolute banger between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich headlines it. The defending UCL champions, PSG, are one of the two teams with a 3-0 record and a table-leading +10 goal differential. The other? A Bayern side looking to get back to UCL glory. It’s a heavyweight slugfest that promises exciting play.
PSG is a +145 favorite to win and +285 to draw at DraftKings Sportsbook, while Munich is +165 on the moneyline. Let’s get into a prediction and pick for this contest.
PSG vs. Bayern Munchen prediction, pick
It’s been a rousing start to PSG’s title defense in the UCL. They got off on the right foot with a 4-0 dismantling of Atalanta, then pulled off a huge 90th-minute win over fellow contenders Barcelona in their second match. A 7-2 dismantling of Munich’s rival side Bayer Leverkusen set up this contest between the two squads at the top of the table. They come into this game with eight straight unbeaten results and top form from their stars.
If you want great form, look no further than Bayern. Remarkably, the German side has won all 15 competitive matches they have played this season across the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, Supercup, and Champions League. Astounding feats are nothing new for Munich, but this has been a prolific run. Harry Kane, who has scored 12 goals already this year, looks like a man on a mission for that elusive UCL trophy.
So, who takes home the goods with a top spot in the Champions League table on the line?
I can’t ignore the form Bayern have displayed. They have yet to play a club on PSG’s level, but the degree to which they have put down all challengers is incredible. Only four clubs have come within a goal of pulling a draw from Munich this year. PSG will taste defeat for the first time in the Champions League since last season’s quarterfinals.
