Tottenham Hotspur has made two big moves before their high-profile UEFA Super Cup match against Paris Saint-Germain on 13th August.
The Spurs have signed West Ham striker Mohammed Kudus on a six-year contract. The 24-year-old scored 13 goals and set up 12 in 65 Premier League games for West Ham in his two years at the club. Even Chelsea and Newcastle were interested in Kudus, but the Spurs closed the deal for £54.5 million.
And in an even bigger development, Tottenham decided to sack their manager, Ange Postecoglou. This happened despite landing the UEFA Europa win and ending the 17-year trophy drought under his leadership. Tottenham still decided to part ways with Postecoglou after the team finished 17th in the Premier League, one of their worst seasons in the top flight.
Meanwhile, PSG was humbled at the FIFA World Cup finals. The Parisians are the reigning champions of Ligue 1, the UEFA Champions League, the Coupe de France, and the French Super Cup. Naturally, everyone expected them to lift the World Cup, too. However, Chelsea stunned them 3–0, proving the Parisians aren’t invincible.
This sets up an interesting clash on 13th August. Tottenham would be eager to prove their new hires’ mettle, while PSG would look to redeem themselves after the World Cup loss.
Both teams are strong, and the fixture promises plenty of action. The match kicks off at 8:00 pm BST at Stadio Friuli in Udine, Italy.
Below, we give you various PSG vs Tottenham Hotspur betting markets and odds.
Paris Saint-Germain vs Tottenham Hotspur: Betting Odds
There’s another change brewing in the Tottenham squad. Captain Son Heung-min looks all set to transfer to Major League Soccer club, LAFC (Los Angeles Football Club). The final decision will be taken by 3rd August. This means the Spurs might be left without a significant attacker in their Super Cup match if their captain leaves.
Moreover, five Tottenham players are injured, adding yet another setback.
Meanwhile, PSG is also dealing with injuries. Their lead striker, Ousmane Dembélé, has a thigh injury and may have to skip the Super Cup match.
Since this is one of Europe’s highest football honours, expectations are high from both teams. Despite injuries and squad reshuffles, fans can expect a tight contest next Wednesday. Bettors should closely watch the betting lines (markets) for the latest odds.

Please note, all the odds mentioned below are accurate as per the publishing time of the article. Visit 7bet’s UEFA Super Cup betting page for the latest odds.
1X2 Odds
Paris Saint-Germain (1) | X | Tottenham Hotspur (2) |
3/7 | 4/1 | 11/2 |
This market is the most popular among new bettors. Here, you have to predict whether Team 1 or Team 2 will win the match or if it will end in a draw (before going to penalty shootouts). This bet is also called “match result”.
This is a straightforward market where you have to predict one out of the possible three outcomes:
- 1: PSG wins
- X: Draw
- 2: Tottenham wins
The odds are written as fractions. The denominator indicates the bet amount, and the numerator tells how much you can expect to win if your chosen team wins. For example, PSG’s odds are 3/7 (accurate at the time of publishing the article). This means you stand to win £3 for every £7, along with your stake (betting amount) back. Similarly, you can gain £4 for every pound wagered on a draw, and £11 for every £2 for correctly predicting Tottenham’s win.
Upon simplifying the fractions, for every pound, you receive £0.42 on PSG’s win, £4 on a draw, and £5.5 on a draw.
These odds reflect how bookmakers rate each team’s chances. Short odds usually indicate a higher probability of that outcome. The odds are called “short” when the numerator value is lower than the denominator and the bet yields less than a pound. On the other hand, the odds are called “long” when the numerator value is higher than the denominator, and the bet yields a significant return. This indicates a low probability of that outcome.
In this case, PSG appears to have a slight edge over Tottenham, as their bet yields the lowest return. However, bettors should note this doesn’t mean PSG’s win is guaranteed. The odds only provide an initial insight. They don’t guarantee the outcome. Moreover, odds are dynamic and keep changing based on injury news and team lineup.
Both teams are strong, so be careful when selecting your choice in the 1X2 market.
Double Chance
PSG or Draw | PSG or Tottenham | Draw or Tottenham |
1/8 | 1/6 | 8/5 |
Take the Double Chance market if you believe that it will be a tight contest and predicting the result would be difficult. If you are a cautious bettor, the Double Chance market lets you cover two out of the three possible outcomes:
- PSG or Draw: This bet loses if Tottenham wins.
- PSG or Tottenham: You lose if the game ends in a draw.
- Draw or Tottenham: This bet loses if PSG wins.
Consider this market after checking both teams’ results in the last 10 matches. In the last 10 matches, PSG has had 8 wins, 2 losses, and zero draws. Meanwhile, Tottenham has had 4 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses.
PSG was last held back to a draw against Nantes in a Ligue 1 match in April, while Tottenham drew their last match with Luton Town on 26th July.
The statistics will guide you on how to minimise risk. You can consider removing the option of a draw if you think this may be the least likely outcome.
Draw No Bet
Paris Saint-Germain | Tottenham Hotspur |
2/13 | 15/4 |
The Draw no Bet is a safe variation of 1X2, where the option of the draw is removed. In case the fixture ends in a draw like 1–1, 0–0, 2–2, 3–3, your stake is refunded. This is a safer option to consider if you want insurance on your bet. You don’t lose your money if the match ends in a draw.
Backing PSG in the Draw No Bet market means you’ll get £2 profit on a £13 (£0.15 for every pound) stake if they win. Your stake will be refunded if the game ends in a draw. Choosing Tottenham at 15/4 odds will give you a high return of £3.75 on a £1 stake.
Handicap Betting Odds
Paris Saint-Germain (-0.25) | Tottenham Hotspur (+0.25) |
2/7 | 12/5 |
Paris Saint-Germain (-0.75) | Tottenham Hotspur (+0.75) |
1/2 | 6/4 |
Paris Saint-Germain (-1.25) | Tottenham Hotspur (+1.25) |
20/23 | 20/21 |
Paris Saint-Germain (-2) | Tottenham Hotspur (+2) |
37/20 | 5/12 |
The handicap betting market is useful if you believe both teams are unevenly matched and the game might tilt heavily in favour of one team. A handicap keeps the game interesting for bettors to follow.
If bookmakers believe that one team is clearly stronger, they introduce a disadvantage called a “handicap”. They will give a negative handicap to the strong team. This means a fixed number (chosen by the bettor) will be removed from their final goal tally. Similarly, the weaker team receives a positive handicap, and the same number gets added to their final goal count. This gives a head start to the weaker team and keeps the result unpredictable.
For example, the final score is 2–1, and your chosen handicap is (+/-) 1.25. With this, the final score will be calculated as 0.75–2.25, giving a win to the second team. Your bet wins or loses depending on the adjusted final score.
On 7bet, all handicaps for PSG are negative. This means PSG will need to win by at least a two-goal margin, depending on your chosen handicap. Here are the key handicap odds to consider in this fixture:
- PSG (-0.75) / Tottenham (+0.75): This selection gives an advantage to Tottenham. A -0.75 handicap means PSG must win with at least a +2 goal difference to overcome the gap. For example, PSG wins 2–1. After adjusting the handicap, the final score will be calculated as 1.25–1.75, meaning bets on Tottenham win. However, if the match ends as a 3–1 win for PSG, the final score will be 2.25–1.75, giving a win to bets on PSG.
- PSG (-1.25) / Tottenham (+1.25): This is an even bigger advantage for Tottenham as PSG needs to have a goal difference of at least +3 to overcome the handicap. For example, a 3–1 win for PSG will be calculated as 1.75–2.25, leading to a win for Tottenham. However, with a 3-goal difference like 4–1, PSG will be able to overcome the handicap as 2.75–2.25.
Both Teams to Score (BTTS Odds)
Yes | No |
11/17 | 23.20 |
The Both Teams to Score (BTTS) is another safe market for new bettors. As the name suggests, you only need to predict if both teams will be able to score at least one goal during the match. The final score doesn’t matter. If you believe both PSG and the Spurs will net the ball even once, your bet wins. If you believe the Spurs will have difficulty scoring a goal against the Parisians, select the “No” bet.
If you choose “Yes”, your bet will win if the final score looks anything like 1–1, 2–1, or 3–2, etc. The “No” bet wins if the final score has a zero in it, like 1–0, 0–0, 2–0, or 3–0. This means at least one team was not able to score.
To decide on this bet, look at both teams’ clean sheets. A clean sheet means the opposition team was unable to score even a single goal. In the last 10 matches, PSG has kept seven clean sheets, and Tottenham has kept four. Use these statistics to decide on the “Yes” or “No” bets.
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
Over 2.5 | Under 2.5 |
8/7 | 7/10 |
This is yet another market where the final outcome of the match doesn’t matter. Here, bettors have to predict the number of goals that will be scored in total. For example, if the match ends 2–1, the total number of goals scored is three.
Bookmakers give several betting lines ranging from a goal total of 1 to 5.75. The most popular betting lines are 2.5 and 3.5 Total. So, in this scenario of a 2–1 final score, if you pick Over 3.5, your bet loses. Bettors who predicted Over 2.5 will win the bet.
This market is also known as Over/Under or O/U. For the PSG vs Tottenham fixture, 7bet’s betting line for this fixture is set at 3.5 goals. If you believe we’ll see a high-scoring match on Wednesday, pick the Over 3.5 bet; otherwise, go for the Under 3.5 bet. You are also free to adjust the betting line as per your analysis.
For example, you predict that both teams will score Over 3.5 goals combined. If the final score is 3–1, 2–2, 3–2 etc, your bet wins. However, if the score is 2–0, 1–0, or 1–1, your bet loses.
Correct Score Odds
1/0 (PSG Wins) | 1/1 (Draw) | 0/1 (Spurs Win) |
9/1 | 17/2 | 20/1 |
The correct score considers two aspects of the game – first, which team will win, and second, what will be the exact score at the final whistle. This makes it far more difficult to predict than other markets. Not only do you need to get the winner right, but you also need to predict the exact winning score.
Predicting a precise 1–0 win for PSG will give you £9 for every pound. Note that the exact score must be 1–0 for your bet to win. If PSG’s winning score is 2–1, 3–2, 2–0, etc, your bet will lose. Similarly, predicting a 1–1 draw (before penalty shootouts) will pay £17 for every £2 (£8.5 per pound), and predicting a 0–1 win for the Spurs pays £20 for every pound.
This is a difficult betting market and should be considered only if you have been following both teams closely.
