đŽ Predictive Heat Zones
Where the goals might come from:
PSGâs attacking heatmap shows left-wing overloads â Dembeleâs zone of destruction
Chelsea likely to funnel via central third, exploiting overloads behind PSGâs high line
đ Set Pieces may decide late momentum. Chelsea's aerial threat (Fofana, Gusto) vs PSGâs zonal marking = potential mismatch.
