Bayern Munich vs. PSG Prediction, Picks for Champions League – Wednesday, May 6
It’s hard to imagine that fans may get to see another high-action game like last week's. After all, the first leg of this matchup was the highest-scoring semifinal in Champions League history.
PSG ultimately finished the game on top, but probably not by as much as they’d hoped. Harry Kane and Michael Olise opened up the scoring for the Germans in the first leg, but it was Ousmane Dembele’s penalty during stoppage time that saw the Parisians ahead 3-2 at the intermission.
Shortly after these teams returned to the pitch, PSG scored 2 more goals in quick succession. Luis Enrique’s squad had gone from down 1-0 in the first 20 minutes to up 5-2 before the hour mark.
The momentum had completely flipped onto the side of the reigning European Champions, and it seemed Bayern was going to head home with a tall task ahead of it. Not even 10 minutes later, Vincent Kompany’s squad pulled 2 goals back themselves.
Both teams had an answer, and the heavyweight slugging made for the most exciting match of the tournament. Entering Wednesday, it is apparent that the quality of these sides could shine through no matter what game plan these managers have for one another.
Bayern will aim to win its seventh straight game at home in the Champions League. Kompany’s squad has scored 8 goals in the two knockout home games for the Bundesliga Champions this season.
On the other hand, PSG has looked great on the road, winning all three of its away legs in the knockout rounds. Enrique’s side looks to hold onto its 1-goal lead. The Champions of France aren’t the type to sit back and park the bus, however.
Both sides may continue to attack relentlessly, and fans might just be in for another relatively high-scoring affair on Wednesday.

Here are two Bayern vs. PSG picks to target for Tuesday, May 5. Player picks via PrizePicks are headlined by F Michael Olise and F Desire Doue.
Bayern F Michael Olise vs. PSG
Michael Olise Projections via PrizePicks: 0.5 Goal + Assist (Goblin), 3.5 Shots, 6.5 Attempted Dribbles
- Olise has now scored in three straight matches across all competitions. The Frenchman has scored or assisted in every match of the knockout round and six of the last seven UCL matches overall.
- The 24-year-old attacker is averaging 3.4 shots per game in the UCL and 4 per game in the knockout stage. The right winger most recently had 4 shots in just 45 minutes in the Bundesliga over the weekend.
- Olise completes his dribbles at a high rate (64%) but averages just under 6 attempts per game. Bayern’s No. 17 had 10 attempted dribbles and a season-high 8 completed in the first leg. This marked the second match in the knockout round in which Olise had 7+ attempted dribbles.

PSG F Desire Doue vs. Bayern
Desire Doue Projections via PrizePicks: 0.5 Shots on Target (Goblin), 0.5 Goal + Assist (Demon), 4.5 Attempted Dribbles
- Desire Doue has had at least 1 G/A in three straight matches across all competitions. PSG’s youngster finished the first leg with 2 assists from open play.
- Doue finished the first leg with just 2 total shots, neither being on target. Even so, the Frenchman was arguably the most dangerous PSG attacker in the final third and, as such, perhaps should've surpassed his 0.7 shots-on-target average.
- PSG’s right winger is averaging just over 4 dribbles attempted in the UCL. Doue finished with 6 attempts in the first leg and is up to nearly 5 per game in the knockout round.
