They have 10 league titles to their name so far; more than Saint-Etienne\u2019s nine.<\/p>\n<p>Urawa Reds finished sixth in Japan\u2019s top flight last season and are deep into their 2022 campaign, currently sitting eighth in the table with 29 points from 22 matches.<\/p>\n<p>The Japanese club won 2-1 against Shimizu S-Pulse on July 16, while they are unbeaten in five games, recording three wins in that period. They are eight points behind third-placed Kawasaki Frontale in the J1 League, with just six victories from their first 22 games a disappointing return considering the quality in their squad.<\/p>\n<h2>PSG vs Urawa Head to Head<\/h2>\n<p>Both sides are yet to face against each other and this marks their first encounter.

Pablo Sarabia may get a midfield role for PSG, but Vitinha and Gueye should both retain their spots in the side.<\/p>\n<h2>Urawa Team News<\/h2>\n<p>As for Urawa Reds, head coach Mihailo Petrovic will make full use of his squad during the clash with Paris Saint-Germain. Yusuke Matsuo scored a goal against Shimizu S-Pulse in the league last time out, and the 24-year-old is again expected to play an attacking role against the French giants.<\/p>\n<h2>Prediction and Odds<\/h2>\n<p>Urawa Reds should provide Galtier with a useful test for his young PSG side, who are deep into their league season and therefore able to play at full strength.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>PSG Win<\/li>\n<li>Goals Over 2.5<\/li>\n<li>Mbappe to Score<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1745245,"template":"","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","type":"","auto_type":false,"post":"","stream":"","stream_url":"","waveform_data":[],"duration":0,"bpm":0,"downloadable":false,"download_url":"","purchase_title":"","purchase_url":"","post-count-all":0,"like_count":0,"download_count":0,"editor_note":"","copyright":"","captions":[]},"genre":[78],"artist":[126],"mood":[],"activity":[],"station_tag":[18744,18711,7387,18723,18119,10610,177,18710,18750,18732,3862,9445,18726,13258,18715,18719,18742,18712,18714,5227,6065,18749,6948,14102,16767,25615,3702,18708],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/station\/1745244"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/station"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/station"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1745245"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1745244"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"genre","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/genre?post=1745244"},{"taxonomy":"artist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist?post=1745244"},{"taxonomy":"mood","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mood?post=1745244"},{"taxonomy":"activity","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activity?post=1745244"},{"taxonomy":"station_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/platogaming.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/station_tag?post=1745244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
