Lens – PSG Tip Trophée des Champions, final on Sunday, 16.08.26 at 20:45
My Lens PSG tip for Sunday will inaugurate the new French season, so to speak. Because this is the Trophée des Champions, the first silverware of the new season, which, as is well known, is awarded at the very beginning in this country.
I myself decided on two things: An Asian handicap bet on Paris St.Germain of -0.5 at odds of 1.73 and the bet-at-home deposit bonus worth 100 euros (300 euros for new customers from Austria).
“Normally” such early season games are always hard-fought. However, PSG has proven several times that they are attached to this trophy. After all, they have already won this final for the last four years!
Lens vs. PSG AI Predictions:
The data model, which is maintained by our IT department at regular intervals, has of course looked at the whole thing itself and released a Lens PSG AI forecast with attached betting recommendations, which I love a lot.
Win PSG & Under 3.5 goals at odds of 2.72 could happen exactly like that. In fact, this would come as little surprise, as each of the last five direct Ligue 1 duels has already gone either 1-0 or 2-0 to the billion-dollar squad from the capital.
Predicted chance of winning:

The AI player bet on Kvaratskhelia also appeals to me. The Georgian remains the man for the important moments, as he demonstrated in the recent 2-1 UEFA Super Cup win over Aston Villa.
In fact, there is another option that I have on my radar that is also recommended by our data model. It attributes an xG value of 0.48 to the RCL, which should usually not be enough for a full hit.
According to this, Lens Doesn’t Score a Goal to 2.67 is absolutely playable at good bookmakers. Especially when the Parisians are committed and allow less than was the case recently against the strong Villans.
