Sport of the week: Paris Saint-Germain v Lille OSC, Saturday 20:05 (UK)
PSG’s march in direction of an unbeaten home season continued final week because of a 3-2 win over Lyon. They didn’t management the sport in components, as they’ve regularly accomplished in current months, however there was all the time a sense that OL have been at arm’s size and that PSG may all the time take their recreation to a different stage if required. With Marseille shedding, PSG have an unassailable 13-point lead on the prime of Ligue 1 with simply 11 video games remaining. There isn’t a doubt that Luis Enrique’s facet will likely be retaining their title at this level however, like final season, is there now an opportunity of seeing a drop-off in efficiency? PSG discovered themselves in an analogous place final season as they put their eggs within the Champions League basket. They reached the semi-finals of that competitors final 12 months and, of their makes an attempt to win it this time round, they need to first dispatch Liverpool. The primary leg of their Spherical of 16 encounter in opposition to the Premier League giants comes after the weekend recreation in opposition to Lille. Might PSG’s heads be elsewhere?
LOSC got here out 2-1 winners in opposition to Monaco in what was a good recreation of few probabilities. The distinction was that Bruno Genesio’s facet took their probabilities; the Principality membership didn’t. Les Dogues haven’t been as spectacular going ahead since Edon Zhegrova’s damage, while Jonathan David has additionally skilled a tail-off in type in current weeks. Like PSG, Lille will even have a watch on their Champions League tie in midweek (in opposition to Borussia Dortmund). There are distractions for either side however as soon as once more, it’s onerous to guess in opposition to PSG persevering with their unbeaten run, on the very least, after they host LOSC.
