Mysterious cat predicts Bayern vs PSG

Nimbus Pronos, the cat famous for its predictions of football matches, has shared its predicted outcome for the second leg between Bayern and PSG.

The feline oracle went straight for which team will reach the final, and it backed the defending champions PSG to get it ahead of Bayern Munich.

The cat got it wrong with its prediction for who would reach the final between Arsenal and Atletico Madrid, as it backed Diego Simeone’s side, which was eliminated.

Luis Enrique shares PSG tactics

PSG will go through if they fail to concede against Bayern Munich, and a 0-0 draw will be a perfect result because of their one-goal advantage.

However, Luis Enrique confirmed that his team will not sit back and defend, but will instead take the game to their hosts as they did in the first leg.

"Our aim is always to win. That's our mentality. We don't plan to sit back and defend the result,” he said during the pre-match conference as quoted by Goal.

However, he warned his players, particularly Ousmane Dembele, not to get extra motivated as it could hurt the team.

“We admire Bayern because they play beautiful football. It's a challenge, but that's also extra motivation to push ourselves to the limit once again and improve,” he added.
“If you're over-motivated, it doesn't help the cause. We need to keep our emotions in check.”

Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany praised his opponent as the strongest team in Europe in the past two years, but is confident his team can defeat them.

“They [PSG] have been the strongest team in Europe over the last couple of years, they've won the Champions League… they're a team that we respect and who are very difficult to play against. We believe the same of ourselves, though, and that we can beat them,” he said as quoted by Sporty TV.
