The quarter-final match of the 2025 Club World Cup between PSG (France) and Bayern Munich (Germany) will take place on July 5 at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, USA. PSG vs. Bayern Munich: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
PSG
Luis Enrique's side confidently defeated Inter Miami 4-0 in the previous stage. This was PSG's third victory in the current tournament, and in each of these matches, the team kept a clean sheet. Additionally, the Parisians won by a four-goal margin for the second time in the Club World Cup. With 10 goals scored, PSG is behind only three clubs in terms of goals scored in the tournament.
- The team has won in regular time in 6 of their last 7 matches in the UEFA Champions League and the Club World Cup.
- The club's players have scored at least twice in 90 minutes in 5 of the last 6 meetings in these tournaments.
- At least one opponent failed to score in regular time in PSG's last five matches in the UEFA Champions League and the Club World Cup.
Predicted lineup for PSG (4-3-3)
Gianluigi Donnarumma – Marquinhos, William Pacho, Nuno Mendes, Achraf Hakimi – Fabian Ruiz, Vitinha, Joao Neves – Desire Doue, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Bradley Barcola.
Defender Presnel Kimpembe may miss the match due to injury.
Bayern Munich
Vincent Kompany's side defeated Flamengo 4-2 in the round of 16. As a result, Bayern secured their third win in the current Club World Cup. The team has been impressive in attack, scoring 16 goals in four matches, which is the best result in this tournament. However, it is worth noting that the Germans have not kept a clean sheet in their last three Club World Cup matches.
- The team has won in regular time in 7 of their last 8 matches in the Club World Cup.
- Bayern has not conceded more than one goal in 90 minutes in 7 of their last 8 matches in this tournament.

PSG vs. Bayern Munich: Match Prediction
In a match between such teams, predicting the outcome is extremely difficult, so I believe it's better to consider the total goals option. Both the French and German teams have been impressive in attack on the international stage and have high scoring records in the current Club World Cup. PSG has scored ten goals in four matches, while Bayern averages four goals per game.
Furthermore, in the last UEFA Champions League campaign, the Parisians regularly found the back of the net, scoring at least twice in 9 of their last 12 matches in this European competition. A similar pattern is observed with the Munich team: Bayern has scored in their last seven UEFA Champions League encounters, and in five of those matches, they breached the opponents' defense at least twice.
I expect a high-scoring match and anticipate a large number of goals. My prediction: Total over 2.5 goals
