In one of the shocks of the 4th day of the Champions League, Paris SG hosts Atlético de Madrid. A unique encounter broadcast in full and exclusively on CANAL+. But like the Colchoneros, which teams have PSG never encountered before?
The Champions League on myCANAL
By facing Atlético de Madrid for the 4th day of the Champions League, Paris SG will add a new name to its prestigious list of European opponents. Because if PSG, thanks to its 32 contested European seasons, has faced the biggest European clubs, some big names have never crossed paths with the Parisian club in an official match.
Spain: Behind Atlético, the yellow submarine
By chance of the draw, Paris SG faced no less than 9 Spanish clubs in European Cups. After having played against Barcelona (15 matches) and Real Madrid (13) on numerous occasions, the Parisians will make their first against Atlético de Madrid on the 4th day of the regular season, a meeting to follow on CANAL+ at 9 p.m. this Wednesday, November 6.
Among the other missing Spanish teams, PSG have never met Villarreal in official matches. Note that the Parisians discovered Girona and Real Sociedad in 2024.
England: Only one absent in the Big Six
Regularly European, the big British clubs almost all appear on the Parisian hunting list. Among the Big Six, Tottenham is the only team not to have faced PSG. Chelsea (8 matches), Manchester City (7), Arsenal (5), Liverpool (4) and Manchester United (4) have all previously played against Paris.
2016 English champion, Leicester has never faced the French club. European Champion Clubs’ Cup winners Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest are also missing.
Italy: Two big names await PSG
Unlike the European championships previously mentioned, beautiful posters shared with Serie A teams still await PSG supporters. The second most successful club in Italy, Inter Milan has never met the Parisian club. The Roman teams, AS Roma and Lazio, have not faced Paris for the moment.
Germany: A European champion never played
Like Bayern Munich (13 matches), Dortmund (8) and Leipzig (5), the main German teams have all faced Paris SG. Absences to note are Borussia Mönchengladbach, Stuttgart, Frankfurt and Hamburg, European champions in 1983.
…and elsewhere in Europe?
In addition to the 5 major European championships, other names also await the Parisians. In Portugal, Sporting has never played against PSG while Fenerbahçe is also missing in Türkiye. On the Dutch side, it is Feyenoord Rotterdam, 1970 European champion, who is the main absentee.
