The European football season will officially kick off on Wednesday night as French giants Paris Saint-Germain lock horns with Tottenham Hotspur in the 2025 UEFA Super Cup in Udine.

The 2024/25 season concluded positively for both sides.

PSG celebrated their maiden UEFA Champions League title, dismantling Inter Milan in a five-goal thriller.

Meanwhile, Tottenham overcame a dismal domestic campaign finishing 17th  in the Premier League, by stunning Manchester United to lift the Europa League trophy, their first European silverware in 17 years.

After securing a historic treble last season, the Parisians are eager to respond positively following a 3-0 loss to Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea in the FIFA Club World Cup final held recently in the United States.

With no time for a proper preseason after their Club World Cup campaign, Luis Enrique’s side will be keen to launch the new season in style, ahead of their Ligue 1 opener against Nantes this weekend.

Spurs, on the other hand, have enjoyed a well-structured preseason and are determined to start strongly.

With the Super Cup title under their belt, they now seek to turn the page on last season’s challenges.

New head coach Thomas Frank is also looking for a promising debut, hoping to steer the team back to consistent form in the Premier League, which kicks off this weekend.

What time does Paris Saint-Germain vs Tottenham Hotspur Start?

PSG vs Tottenham Hotspur team news

Luis Enrique has a nearly full squad at his disposal, with no major injuries reported.

However, a key change could occur in goal, as first-choice keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma is rumored to be on his way out.

Lille’s Lucas Chevalier has already been signed as a potential successor.

The Parisians will also be without midfielder João Neves, who is serving a two-match ban following a red card in the Club World Cup final.

Tottenham continue to grapple with injury setbacks.

James Maddison has been ruled out for most of the season after tearing his ACL in a preseason match against Newcastle United. He joins long-term absentees Dejan Kulusevski and Radu Dragusin on the sidelines.

Left-back Destiny Udogie is also a doubt for this match and may miss the league opener against Burnley.

PSG vs Tottenham Hotspurs probable line ups

Paris: Chevalier, Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Nuno Mendes, Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha, Fabian Ruizm, Doue, Dembele, Kvaratskhelia

Tottenham: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence; Bentancur, Palhinha; Kudus, Sarr, Odobert; Solanke

PSG vs Tottenham Hotspur current form

Tottenham have had a mixed preseason, winning two of their six matches, drawing three, and losing one.

For PSG, this will be their first competitive game since the Club World Cup final, and they’ll look to build on the dominant form that saw them conquer Europe last season.

Neither side has lifted the Super Cup before.

This will mark Spurs’ debut in the competition, while PSG aim to erase memories of their 1996/97 appearance, when they suffered a 9-2 aggregate defeat to Juventus.

PSG vs Tottenham predictions

Both teams are eager to make a strong impression before their respective leagues commence this weekend.

For Thomas Frank, this is an opportunity to ignite hope among Spurs supporters, while Luis Enrique seeks to strengthen belief among the Parisians.

Expect a tightly contested encounter that may require extra time if both sides perform to their full potential.

That said, PSG will head into the clash as slight favorites due to their squad depth and recent pedigree but underestimating Spurs would be a grave error.
