Paris Saint-Germain hosts Atlético de Madrid this Wednesday (9 p.m.) during the fourth day of the Champions League. Disappointing this season on the continental scene, the team led by Luis Enrique has not yet found the right formula.
Despite the departure of Kylian Mbappé during the offseason, Luis Enrique constantly repeated that PSG was stronger thanks to the collective. But the Ile-de-France club is looking for itself, particularly on the European scene where it has won only one of its three matches before hosting Atlético de Madrid this Wednesday (9 p.m.) during the fourth day of the Champions League. Not yet a cause for concern for Luis Enrique despite several average performances from his team which does not yet need a magic trick to guide Paris to victory.
“Magic formulas are in the Harry Potter films,” said the Spanish technician to the Canal + channel.

“A magic wand, you do what you want”
Solid leader of Ligue 1 and still undefeated in the championship after ten matches, PSG is having more difficulty setting up its football in C1. After a sluggish victory against Girona (1-0), the Ile-de-France residents lost at Arsenal (2-0) then disappointed against PSV (1-1).
So many average performances which reminded us of the need for points this Wednesday against the Colchoneros. But before his reunion with Diego Simeone, Luis Enrique again suggested that he needs time and that everything does not appear in a flash as soon as necessary.
“There (in the Harry Potter films), with a magic wand, you do what you want,” continued the former La Roja coach. This Wednesday at the Parc des Princes, it is Luis Enrique who will have to find the right tactical plan to dominate Atletico. And to get there, the Spaniard will be able to count on his magicians: Bradley Barcola and Ousmane Dembélé. In the event of another failure, PSG would make their task even more complicated with a view to qualifying for the eighth or even the play-offs of the Champions League.
