PSG face one of the most demanding schedules in the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League league phase. As defending champions, the French side will be eager to make a strong opening statement.
Key fixtures include clashes with Bayern Munich and Barcelona and a near-immediate rematch against Tottenham Hotspur after their recent UEFA Super Cup showdown.
Newcastle United and Athletic Bilbao are also on the calendar, alongside Bayer Leverkusen, Atalanta, and Portuguese champions Sporting Lisbon, all standing between PSG and a strong push toward the knockout stage.

In his latest column for Ensemble PSG, Zach Lowy, co-creator of Breaking The Lines and freelance football writer, put together a prediction piece for PSG in the league phase. On November 26, the Parsians will face Tottenham for a second time this year.
After the comeback win to win the Super Cup, Lowy believes that the Ligue 1 side will again come out on top of the London-based club.
“Paris Saint-Germain kicked off their 2025/26 season in Udine, facing off against reigning UEFA Europa League winners Tottenham Hotspur in the UEFA Super Cup,” Lowy said.
“Having only just returned to training a few days ago, PSG found themselves overpowered and overwhelmed against a Tottenham side that had been undergoing preseason preparations for several weeks. To the surprise of everyone, they were second-best for the majority of their match as Tottenham scored on either side of the interval to mount a 2-0 lead.
“However, Enrique’s substitutes would pay off as Fabian Ruiz helped mark a shift in momentum, whilst Kang-in Lee halved the margin in the 85th minute and Goncalo Ramos equalized in the 94th minute to force penalties, where they prevailed 4-3. We’re expecting PSG to be far more prepared against Thomas Frank’s side, and we’re expecting them to come away with a win against a team that has lost four of its last six league matches. Prediction: Win (2-1).”
