Luis Enrique Confident PSG Can Overcome RB Salzburg

Posted : 09 December 2024

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) manager Luis Enrique is confident his team can secure a vital win against RB Salzburg on Tuesday, despite a tough start to their Champions League campaign. PSG have accumulated just four points from five games and find themselves in 25th place, two points behind the playoff spots.

 

With their qualification hanging in the balance, the upcoming clash is crucial for their chances to advance to the knockout stages.

 

Although PSG's Champions League defeats have come against formidable opponents like Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Arsenal, they can take solace in their strong domestic form. The French side remains unbeaten in Ligue 1, sitting comfortably at the top with a five-point lead after 14 matches.

 

With a challenging match against 2023 champions Manchester City scheduled for January, the fixtures against Salzburg and VfB Stuttgart represent PSG's best opportunities to secure crucial points in the competition.

 

Luis Enrique stressed the importance of the upcoming game, acknowledging that there are no easy matches, either in Ligue 1 or the Champions League.

 

He emphasized the need for his team to focus on creating more chances than their opponents, aiming for 20 to 30 opportunities while minimizing defensive errors.

 

"We need to keep our confidence up and press on," he said, reiterating the necessity of winning the remaining games to ensure progression to the next round.

 

Despite PSG’s young squad, with an average age of 24, Enrique dismissed concerns about inexperience affecting their European performance. He pointed out that many of the younger players are accustomed to the high standards set at PSG, having been part of the team last season.

 

The manager clarified that his selection for important matches like this one is based on what he observes in training, not on the players’ ages, as he strives to get the best out of both individuals and the team as a whole.
