PSG vs Tottenham prediction & Uefa Super Cup best bets

PSG vs Tottenham tips: Tottenham begin life under new boss Thomas Frank on Wednesday when they face Paris St Germain in the Uefa Super Cup in Italy. They qualified for the Super Cup by winning the Europa League, their first major trophy in 17 years, but it wasn't enough for manager Ange Postecoglou to keep his job. He was sacked following the victory in Bilbao, and his former club now face the Champions League winners PSG, looking for their first silverware of the season. The French side were outstanding last season, winning the French league at a canter before thrashing Inter Milan 5-0 in the Champions League final in Munich to win the trophy for the first time. They were also impressive in the Fifa World Club Cup earlier this summer, until they faced Chelsea in the final and were beaten 3-0 at the MetLife Stadium. Spurs will be hoping to catch Luis Enrique's side off guard on Wednesday after their short summer break, but we all know the quality they will face, especially in attack. PSG vs Tottenham betting: PSG too strong for Spurs While the French giants boast a forward line including the likes of Desire Doue, Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Spurs will be without two of last season's leading goal scorers. Son Heung-min finally ended his 10-year association with the club when he joined Los Angeles FC earlier this month, and James Maddison will miss most of the season after undergoing surgery on his anterior cruciate ligament injury. They have turned the loan of Mathys Tel into a permanent move and added West Ham's Mohammed Kudus for £55m, and he will want to improve on the six goals he managed last season. It's no secret that Frank is looking to add goals to his squad, and their recent 4-0 defeat by Bayern Munich will not give fans too much hope that they can shock PSG. Football betting sites are all backing the French side at odds of 6/13, while you can get 6/1 on a Spurs win and 4/1 on a draw after 90 minutes. PSG scored 38 goals in last season's Champions League and knocked out Liverpool, Aston Villa and Arsenal, while Spurs lost seven of nine matches against those three sides. PSG vs Tottenham prediction 1: PSG to win by four or more goals - 13/2 BoyleSports PSG vs Tottenham prediction: Dembele to carry on where he left off Ousmane Dembele scored eight goals in last season's Champions League campaign, including a hat-trick against Stuttgart to earn him the Uefa Player of the Season accolade. He scored 34 goals in 56 games for club and country last season and signed off with two goals at the Club World Cup in wins over Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. Betting sites are offering 15/4 on him scoring first and 4/1 on him scoring last. You can also get 6/5 on the French international scoring at any time and 5/1 on him scoring two or more, as he did on eight separate occasions last season. PSG vs Tottenham prediction 2: Ousmane Dembele to score at any time - 6/5 Unibet PSG vs Tottenham betting offers NetBet are running a free bet offer for the Super Cup clash between PSG and Tottenham. Customers that place a £5 bet builder before the start of the game which contains three legs or more and odds of 2/1 or greater will qualify to receive a £5 free bet.

Never treat gambling as a way to make money, never bet more than you can afford and when the fun stops, stop. Gambling sites offer punters tools, like deposit limits, profit and loss trackers and self-exclusion options, to help them stay in control. But if you ever feel like you need help or advice on gambling addiction, don't hesitate to contact one of the charities or organisations below.

Aston Villa hoping to re-sign Marco Asensio

Aston Villa are exploring a deal to re-sign Paris St-Germain's Marco Asensio. Unai Emery is keen to bring the Spanish international back to Villa Park for a second successive season, with either a permanent move or loan both being considered as options. Asensio, 29, was a high-profile capture alongside Marcus Rashford in this year's January transfer window, joining on loan for the second half of the campaign. Scoring eight goals in 21 appearances in all competitions, Emery likes the forward for his versatility and ability to play in a number of attacking positions. The former Real Madrid player has been a target for Emery ever since the Basque coach's appointment at Villa in October 2022 and the club would be open to re-signing him. Asensio has attracted interest from clubs in Turkey and Saudi Arabia during this window. He has one year remaining on his current contract with PSG, so a move away could suit both parties. It is understood that PSG may consider a cut-price fee to remove him from their wage bill. Villa's window has so far seen little incoming business, aside from the £23.5m capture of forward Evann Guessand from Nice last week. Emery's main priority this summer has been to keep the core of their squad, with Youri Tielemans and John McGinn both in line for new contract offers. Jacob Ramsey has already been in talks over an extension. Boubacar Kamara, arguably Villa's most important player, and Lucas Digne have already committed their long-term futures to the club. Villa could offload a number of players to boost their spending power and compliance with Uefa's financial regulations before the transfer deadline on September 1. Emiliano Martinez, the Argentina World Cup winner, was targeted by Manchester United but an audacious loan offer was swiftly rejected. Jamaica international Leon Bailey's future remains uncertain but there has been little concrete interest so far. Villa kick off their new Premier League season at home to Newcastle United on Saturday.
