After delivering another winner on Monday night, SlipsTips shares a selection ahead of Aston Villa’s clash with PSG in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Aston Villa vs PSG (Tuesday, 20:00)
Villa Park will play host to Aston Villa and Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League quarter-final second leg tie on Tuesday night.
Unai Emery’s team face an uphill task to keep their European adventure alive after falling to a 3-1 defeat in Paris last Wednesday night.
I’ve already covered this contest in a separate match preview but I’ve since identified another player-based selection that I’m keen to highlight.
PSG’s Joao Neves looks well worthy of support to commit two or more fouls during this showdown at 13/8 with Betfair.
While the 20-year-old is technically accomplished in possession, his combative streak without the ball can often land him in trouble with match officials.
That was plain to see during last week’s first leg, with Neves overstepping the mark on no fewer than four occasions.
In fact, Neves getting on the wrong side of the referee has been somewhat of a recurring theme in PSG’s recent Champions League assignments.
The Portuguese midfielder was also guilty of four offences during his team's 3-0 success away at fellow Ligue 1 side Brest during the play-off round.
What’s more, Neves also made multiple misdemeanours during PSG's recent continental contests with the likes of Man City, Stuttgart and Salzburg.
That means the classy PSG midfielder has committed two or more fouls in five of his last eight appearances for the French giants on the European stage.
On top of all that, Neves also fell foul of the referee on two occasions during the French heavyweights' recent Ligue 1 away day at Lyon.
Therefore, in a game of this magnitude, and likely to be in direct battle with Aston Villa foul-magnet John McGinn, the PSG ace looks well placed to commit a couple of fouls on Tuesday night at an attractive 13/8 on Betfair.
